Hey everyone.
I just have a quick question here regarding the RAM upgrade I am getting next weekend. Basically there are two to choose from for me:
Corsair TWINX 1024MB PC5400 667MHz Dual Channel DDR2 Memory (2 x 512MB) 4-4-4-12

Corsair TWINX Dual Channel 1024MB PC6400 DDR2 800MHz Memory (2x512MB) 5-5-5-15
http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2341729&CatId=0
Basically my question is which one would be the better choice? The first one has an OK speed of 667MHz but has timings of 4-4-4-12.
The second one has a faster speed of 800MHz, however the latency is much higher, at 5-5-5-15.
Given these two choices, which would you go for? I personally would go with the lower timings, because I think 5-5-5-15 is too high latency. What do you think?
Any ideas are appreciated!
Thanks :grinthumb
