I am building a low grade gaming system which is less than $300 but can go over a little. I know it is not much but I do not even play games that require such power. Anyway, my question is:
what is better 1x4gb 1600 mhz for $33.99
or
2x2gb 1333 mhz for $38.53?
Here is my build

I might even change to APU so this question is vital. Should I get 1 fast stick of ram or 2 slow sticks of ram?
