Is it worth getting faster ram?

[big daddy g]

hi guys ive just noticed my ram is running at 666.7mhz would it be worth upgrading to 1600mhz ? i only really play games no video editing or anything like that

You have to multiply that by 2 - your RAM is running at 1333Mhz. Changing it to 1600MHz with good timings will give you about 5% performance boost. Is it worth the money?

if it will run 1600. may not have made the grade. no it's not worth it.

It's worth buying 1600MHz if you are making a new build. However, if you'll be upgrading, it might be too late and not worth it.
