small question trying to figure out what would be better performance wise and it might not veen matter or be the same but i figure i ask
im maxing out my old gaming rig its a core 2 quad q9550 at 2.9 ghz with a corsair 750 watt psu
4 gb of ram and a gtx 570 gaming card with a 500 gb harddrive
anyways, my question is i plan on maxing out the ram on it which my system will handle up too 16gb of ddr3 ram PC3-12800 Unbuffered NON-ECC so on that note i can either buy in the fastest bus speed for what ever size ram which i think no matter the size four 4gb or 2 8gb ram sticks goes the same but would their be any gain even if only minute performance wise from maxing out with 4 of the same 4gb ram sticks or 2x8gb ram sticks cause it allows both and FYI the computer is used for mostly gaming
