Hello There,
First time post and I was wondering if I could get some advice. I usually put together my own machines and keep up on hardware pretty well. I know that there are some big changes coming in the future, but I am trying to keep my machine going as well as I can for a little while longer.
When it comes to the memory in a pc I know about latency etc.. However, my question below is based on cpu-z readings vs new memory I am consider getting. Yes, I do get a bump in the amount but I am wondering based on my components if anyone out there can offer some stable tweaks without water cooled memory and video ( already have watercooled CPU ) that might get the most out of my current items.
I am running 3 hp w2408h monitors connected to an older video card, but it does well, so I am also going to upgrade that as well unless someone says something to change my mind.
current pc config:
Asus crosshair formula iv
Amd 1090T Phenom II x6
2 ( Intel 520 Series Cherryville SSDSC2CW240A3K5 )
Radeon HD 5850
Corsair Dominator 8GB DDR3 4x2GB
CORSAIR HX Series HX850 850W ATX12V 2.3 / EPS12V 2.91
I am thinking about upgrading to the
G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-1600C9D-16GXM
EVGA 04G-P4-3687-KR GeForce GTX 680 FTW+ w/Backplate 4GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
Please advice.. I am also going to show the memory I have now from CPU-Z for maybe some bios changes to timing. Just let me know if there is any benefit other then amount for the memory I would get by upgrading if you can.
