Hi, right now i have one 4gb 1600mhz stick, and one 2gb 1333mhz stick in my rig. Since one stick is lower than the other, the other stick will of course be lowered to the slower speed, so lets just say they're both running at 1333mhz. I'm looking at picking up a 2x4gb 1600mhz dual channel set of G.SKILL snipers ram to upgrade. First, will the upgrade from 6gb to 8gb be noticeable? Second, will the upgrade from 1333 to 1600 speed noticeable? Both these effects will take on if i upgrade, but i'm actually not sure if its worth upgrading. Yeah? No?

For most 8GB will show better gains then having all at 1600, but it depends on what all you do with your rig, if simply single tasking and light gaming then no need to upgrade, if playing newer games and/or muti-tasking then yes *GB would help
