Hi fellas,

I am currently running G.Skill DDR3-1600 9-9-9-24 2x4GB with my FX-8350.

I am looking at upgrading to G.Skill DDR3-1866 8-9-9-24 Link

What are your thoughts?

Thanks,
-zeb
 
You wont notice anything, even going to 2133mhz RAM. Only benchmarks will really show a little something. Your in game FPS may raise a very little notch.
 
Okay I need to upgrade anyway due to moving my current 8 gigs into my ladies computer. I am going to purchase 16 gigs for myself. I just finished reading through the forum threads below this and some have said 1600 is the best timing for OCing AMD.

As of this moment I am looking at purchasing my current RAM but twice the size. "Ripjaws".

I buyed alot of G.Skill set in the last years and the never failed on me. Currently running a 4x4 set on my main rig ( RipjawX 2133mhz ) and a 2x4gb set in my HTPC ( Ares 1600mhz ).

16gb is useless for gaming, but Ram is so cheap so why not buying 16gb.
