I am going to buy an ATI hd4670 512mb ddr3.
Does it worth it? i think it does!

You need to manually set the Memory Clock option to [400MHz (DDRII800)], since w/ it set to AUTO the default is JEDEC #1 at 266MHz (DDR2-533MHz) and 4-4-4-12 timings.

Umm.. there probably won't be a big difference if you change the RAM speed.....

LeonX · 12-20-09, 05:27 PM

Well i did it and its a bit faster..
Also for christmas, +1 2gb ram trascend, if i can get another 2 gb its better for dual channel.

Is dual channel better? what would happend?, it will be faster? , how much?

my laptop runs at 266 (533) most laptops do. In theory your memory bandwidth would double. in practice you don't get full 2x
