hello, just wanting some advice/help on making sense of these numbers, and seeing if everything is ok.

i have an asus p5k-e wifi motherboard. and 2 sets of this ram
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-119-CS&groupid=701&catid=8&subcat=817

everything has been left alone in the bios apart from upping the frequency for the cpu.
im getting these in CPU-Z, just wanting to make sense of it, and if thats correct for my ram

thats the same for all 4 slots

thanks in advance.
 
any idea what i'd be looking at changing there?

on a side note, if i were to but 4 lots of 2 gig in there, would i notice a difference?
main reason is i have a very short attention span and like to game in windowed mode and do firefox/msn, and assumed 8gig would be better for multi tasking (which is what i shall call it)

thanks for the advice
 
yea, i did a mild over clock on my q6600 (2.8)
but just left all the ram settings on Auto.

just asked about the 8gig because according to the perf. monitor on my g15 im using 70% of the ram while playing, which led me to believe that maybe i was straining it, and maybe more could help.

but yes, it may well be the harddrive, as i actually luaghed when i saw the benchmark showing how knackered it was.
 
nah got an artic cooling freezer 7 pro, which i'll be replacing/TIMing and i'll try upping it.

what am i setting to 1066, the frequency or? seems to be a million and 1 options there
