I have read in many places that if you're a gamer or even just not running real memory intensive stuff, there's no real need to rush towards upgrading from DDR3 to DDR4.
I'm using DDR2.
I built my machine around 8 years ago, and have thusfar gotten by only upgrading the graphics card and getting a new power supply a couple of times. But I think it's time has come, and I'm looking to put this soldier to rest for a new wave.
So as someone who does not already own a decent machine running DDR3, would you say it is worth sinking the extra cash in to making the leap to DD4? I would obviously love my machine to last a solid 8 years again, so my gut says yes. But when throwing around this much money I figure it never hurts to ask for a few outside opinions.
