Hi i hav just bought this motherboard http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-011-AK&groupid=701&catid=5&subcat=205 and was wondering is it worth up grading my ram i currently have 2X512 mb DDR ram.I play on games like counter strike, Hitman etc. Will this make these games run smoother? What is the cheapest price for 2X1gb DDR2 ram? Thanks Pat

If you only have DDR Ram at the moment you will need to upgrade your Ram to DDR2 Memory.

Something like this will be fine:

Or somethin with tighter timings:

Honestly though you wont really notice the difference.

This is the cheapest 2x1gb of DDR2 pc5300 on OcUK.

And yip most ppl notice a difference going from 1gb to 2gb when gaming.
