hi, can anyone advice on which memory upgrade I should take?
I currently have one 8gb ddr3 1600 G.Skill RipJaws X on a AsRock z87m Pro4 motherboard.
it says on the mobo specs, that it "Supports Dual Channel DDR3/DDR3L 2800+(OC)" (which I am not sure about)
My pc is used for cad/rendering (from time to time)/gaming.
Which one should work well for my pc? to buy a 1x16gb ram or a set of 2x8gb (or just buy another 8gb ddr3 1600 Gskill?)
and another question - what does "1600" mean? i have seen others like 800, 1033, and some higher like 2000~? is it worth it to purchase ram higher than 1600?
thanks
**update:
i have a intel core i7 4770 3.4-3.9ghz cpu
