What I have now....
Newegg.com - CORSAIR DOMINATOR 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model TW3X4G1600C9D G
What I'm looking at...
Newegg.com - CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model CMZ8GX3M2X1600C7R
How's this upgrade? Another other RAM ideas? Will be using for all sorts of games(WoW, crysis, assassin's creed, MW3, Civ 5... also do programming and have multiple windows open and tasks going on)
Thanks!
Want 8gb for sure, prefer Corsair (maybe G Skill), will be replacing the original not adding on, usage sometimes goes up to around 80% when playing games and such.
Other parts id consider upgrading maybe are the GPU or CPU..
Have....
Newegg.com - AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Deneb 3.2GHz Socket AM3 125W Quad-Core Processor HDZ955FBGMBOX
Newegg.com - SAPPHIRE 100314SR Radeon HD 6870 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card with Eyefinity
Would upgrading one of these give better performance then RAM? Would upgrade to a quad core CPU most likely, and if GPU most likely get another 6870 and crossfire.
Looking for some suggestions and opinions.
