    Ram help

    Well I have some no branded ram in my rig , 2 sticks of 2GB DDR2 800 Hz that cost about £8 each and I was wondering whether or not I would see much of a performance increase by replacing this, as it may be a bottleneck. If so, could anyone provide me with a recommendation for a replacement? Thanks

    My specs are :

    HDD: 500 GB western digital 7200 rpm 32mb cache

    Case: HAF 932 CPU: Phenom 940 @3.0 Ghz

    GPU: ATI 4890 1GBGPU saphire pre overclocked @ 900mhz PSU: 750 watt corsair

    Motherboard: Asus M3N78 PRO RAM: 4GB 800 DDR2

    You already have Maximum memory in your system. Then why you need to replace! Nothing to do. Just stay as it is.
