Hi!
I currently have a Phenom II X6 (1100t) OCd to a 24/7 4.00GHz (modest, I know) running on a Sabretooth 990FX motherboard with 2x2GB + 2x4GB sticks of 1600 RAM.
I'm looking to upgrade the processor to a Piledriver CPU and I'm considering taking the opportunity to boost the memory also. Same size but 2400.
I use this box for database development work and a modest amount of 3D rendering (Maya-style, not Game-style) and some 2D artwork (painting in ArtRage).
My question - in the real world, not benchmarking, do you think I'd see a performance benefit from upgrading the memory?
Thanks for all advice.
