Hello

I just wanted to ask the community if there was a bench
mark test or what they thought was better out of:

6 Gig DDR3 667Mhz (4G+2G Identical timings etc)

or

4 Gig DDR3 800Mhz Crutial (1 4Gig stick)

Pc uses :
Heavy Rendering,Streaming/casting,Gaming
(normally simultaneously)

Thanks in advance :)

 


Thanks a lot for your reply :)
I have a gigabyte ga-78lmt Mobo, it says in its specs that :
"Support for DDR3 1333+ (O.C.)/1066/800 MHz memory modules"

Would this mean that it supports its full speed? or does it need to be overclocked 1st ?
(it seems to work fine, but i have read from some people on this forum that the speed is reduced.
Im no expert so not sure what readings I should be checking )

Anymore of your or anyone's knowledge would be greatly appreciated :)
