Hello,
As we all knw tht GTA 5 is coming for PC soon,and i m exicted but before i can run tht game well, i need to upgrade my RAM first, i have posted a thread many months ago but didnt get clear answer, so i m asking once again.
My PC is Compaq Presario CQ3559IN and MotherBoard is MSI 2AB4, Currently i have 3 GB RAM only,but i m upgrading it to 8 GB.
The RAM i m thinking to buy is

I m will buy 2x4GB Stick from above link, so this one will work for me ,specially for gaming ?

If the 3GB configuration is 2x1GB + 2x512MB or 3x1GB, you might be able to reuse the 2x1GB. If it is 1GB+2GB then never mind.

Yes, 2x4GB @ 1333 should be fine for your system and gaming in general as long as you do not end up CPU-bound too much.

Another possibility would be to get 1600-1866 RAM (it will work fine at 1333 for now) if you have plans to upgrade the rest of the PC in the foreseeable future. This way, you could reuse that 8GB.
