My specs:
Gigabyte 780T-D3L
DDR3 4+2 GB 1333Mhz RAM
AMD FX-4100
Sapphire GD6770 1GB

Would I get better performance in games if i change the 2GB ram module to a Kingston (1x)8GB Module - DDR3 1333MHz?
Could you recommend any upgrades to my system?

So, you have one 4GB stick, and one 2GB stick?

You'd be best off going for 4+4; identical sticks of RAM let the memory controller operate in dual-channel mode (which is basically twice as fast as 'single channel mode', which it would operate in with either one stick, or non-matching sticks.


Beyond that, your system's pretty well-balanced, and any one upgrade may require a revamp of the whole system to see much benefit, but you could upgrade the graphics card if you wanted 🙂
