Plenty of excellent sites available by doing a Google search or using another search engine. |

The bigger the numbers the longer the time it takes the RAM to do the job- so the lower the better. Lower also means more expensive for any given RAM bandwidth (speed) i.e. DDR3-1600 at 6-7-6-18 is considerably more expensive than DDR3-1600 at 9-9-9-28 |

1600MHz RAM is overrated for the average user. Get cheaper RAM that has better latency. |

Finally. 4GB DDR3 modules becoming more widely available at last. |

1600MHz RAM is overrated for the average user. Get cheaper RAM that has better latency. It's still cheaper in many cases to buy budget DDR3-1600 with loose timings of CAS8 or 9 and clock them at DDR3-1333 levels to obtain 7-7-7-20 timings. In this respect a moderately priced set of RAM like Corsair CMX6GX3M4A1600C9 (9-9-9-24) or Super Talent WA16UX8G9 Gold Series 1600 @ 9-9-9-28 makes better economic sense than investing in Kingston KHX1333C7D3K4/8GX HyperX (1333 @ 7-7-7-20). |
