Hello,
My system currently has 196mb of sdram, 128 and a 64 chip and I believe it
is pc100 memory. MY motherboard manual says it can take either pc100 or
pc1300 speed memory.
Well, I recently got my hands on 2 x 128mb chips = 265mb but they run at
pc66.
The general consensus is that the more memory a system has the quicker it
will run but assuming my board can take the pc66 speed should I expect the
*extra* ram to increase my performance or will the fact that the memory is
*slower* cancel the extra memory out?
In other words, will 256mb ram running at pc66 give better performance that
196mb ram running at pc100?
Cheers,
TD.
