Do anyone know why i get worse FPS after adding more RAM. Had 2x2gb and added 2x2gb.

DRAM may not be playing nice, (settings (timings) and data rate may be off), voltage for DRAM may be low - What CPU, mobo and model #s of the DRAM?

CPU: Intel Core duo E8400
Motherboard: Asus p5n-d
Gpu: Radeon HD 7850
64-bit Windows 10
Both ddr2 RAMs 2x2GB each:

What does it show in the memory tab?

it would seem that you have mixed your ram, not a good idea when trying to get parts to play nicely. my suggestion would be: replace one set of ram, and use a set similar to the one not being replaced. IE: replace the Apacer set with another set of the kingston, since it looks like the kingston set has better specs.

You have 800 DRAM and it's running at 667, try setting to 800

How do i do that? in BIOS?

Go into BIOS and set the DRAM up manually

Well didnt improve the fps, found out that using the old doubbles in both yellow slots is the best. than mixing them around with the new one. the new ones alone wasnt better either.
