Corsair PC2-6400C3 Meets AMD's AM2 Processors
2 gigs or 4 gigs of memory - which is "better"...
Looks like the guys over at Legit Reviews have answered a question that was burning in mind about the potential of the new AMD2 processors and associated new DDR2 memory. That question is "If I were to buy or build a new PC (using the new AMD proc and memory) how much memory should I buy?" The basis to this exercise is comparing 2 gigs to 4 gigs of memory. To sum it up, 2 gig of memory will do 99.9% of us just fine. The more important thing to remember is the tighter the timings the faster the memory (and the pc) will be. Remember this is for AMD systems. The Intel folks seem to go in the opposite direction when it comes to memory timings, that is a bit looser in the timing department.
At any rate enough of my ramblings and on to a very good read:
