So, I have a question about RAM, does increasing RAM increase speed, and by how much and how it affects my other components in terms of potential power.
I'm also wondering if upgrading to 2 times the memory, to 16GB is going to make a much of a difference because all I do is open a lot of tab, a few background programs, and lots of excel, and i want to have quick RAR files and a quick startup. I also will use this computer in the future for 3d rendering and 3d modeling, which will be happening at the same time all these other programs are running.
My current specs are:
i7-3770K Ivy Bridge 3.5GHz
ASUS p8z77-v Pro
Cooler Master hyper 212+*like everyone else ;]*
G.Skill Ripjaws 2x4GB DDR3 1600
OCZ ModXStream Pro 700W
Antec 300
EVGA GTX 670 2GB
