running vista ultimate on some budget 1gb (2x512mb) PNY Optima ddr400 from Fry's running in dual channel. Not sure if I'm even supposed to since cpu-z has different info on them like chip manufacturer and stuff (actually cpu-z doesn't even show any chip info for one of them, but the other one is Infineon), but the timings are the same 3-3-3-8.
Recently started playin wow, and usually have media center tv open at the same time, and notice that things get really sluggish (sometimes in the game, mostly on the desktop).
I've been thinking of getting some A-data Vitesta 2gb (2x1gb) ddr400 dual channel kit with 2.5-3-3-6 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211014). Would this help me greatly?
I'm prety ram illiterate so I dunno about the timings and such and how much of a difference it would make. Would the +1gb of ram plus faster timings be a huge improvement over what I'm running now?
Also, if I were to put the A-data ram in, and still keep my PNY ram in at the same time, would the entire system run at the slowest ram timing? Or would it run differently depending on which ram module is being used?
