Hey guys.

What would be preferable:

(2gb + 2gb + 2gb) @800mhz 9-9-9-24
or
(2gb + 2gb + 2gb + 2gb) @666mhz 9-9-9-24 - at this timing 3 of the sticks would be underclocked from the nearest timing: 711mhz 8-8-8-25

I was just wondering if running 6gb at a higher speed would be better than 8gb at a lower speed. So just stick to 8gb?
