Help me understand how much the speed of ram affects performance. The laptop came with 6GB DDR3 1600mhz ram (one 2GB card + 4GB card both at 1600mhz), and have a matching spare set of two 4GB DDR3 1066mhz for a total of 8GB DDR3 1066mhz ram.
So is 6GB DDR3 1600mhz RAM actually better than 8GB DDR3 1066mhz RAM, or is storage size the most important factor?
Also, am I correct that mixing a 4GB 1600mhz with a 4GB 1066mhz is not recommended because they are different speeds?
Thanks!
