Ok. So i am moving away from OC'ing scene and i have a question regarding memory. I ahve some HOT ram right now but i wont need it if i am not OC'ing. Will i notice any performance differnece at stock with cheap PC-3200 RAm? Like if i but the cheapest PC-3200, 2 512mb sticks, will i, not benchmarks, notice any differnece in performance? Thanks.
 
At stock speeds your not going to notice any difference at all outside of a few points in benchmarks. Cheap value RAM with more lax timings are a good option if your not planning on overclocking the RAM. Overclocking the RAM doesn't have much affect on performance with Athlon 64 rigs anyways.
 
Good good good. Thanks. Thats what i thought but before i sold my RAM i wanted to make sure. Thanks.
