Couple questions for yall:
A. As far as i know i'd gain a performance increase from the 6 to 4 core cpu because the clock is slightly higher as games wont ever use six cores in the foreseeable future, correct?
B. Will this amd CPU work natively with 1600mhz ram or will there me some monkeying around to get it going?
Thanks.
