Core2Duo - Any need for 800Mhz RAM?
Is there any advantage to purchasing 800Mhz RAM for a DP965LT motherboard with
an E6600 processor? I'm being advised that 533 MHZ is all I need if I'm not overclocking. I'm a pro photographer who uses Photoshop extensively and am willing to pay for faster RAM if it indeed offers any advantage. Does it? Also, would 800 MHZ RAM be more useful in the near future when FSB speeds increase to 1333MHz FSB (Bearlake). Thanks Russell |
