On my older computer I have
AMD phenom 9570
6 GB DDR2 memory (2x2gb)(2x1gb)
ATI Radeon 4350 512 MB

On my newer computer I have
AMD a6-6400k
4 GB DDR3 memory (2x2gb)
Radeon 8670D 768 MB

So what I'm curious about is the performance difference difference between DDr2 and DDr3. On both my computers their specs are mostly similar aside from the 200 MB difference in graphics cards. So would the memory greatly affect how games perform because I was playing a game called SpeedRunners and there was very different performance in the computers. On my older computer I was lagging in a game that doesn't really require much. So I got to thinking is it my memory?
