Hi guys.

I was wondering what do u think will i get preformance boost if I put one more stick of 4gb 1333mhz ram?

Now the pc is i5 4670k, and gtx660 ti, and only 4gb ram. What do u think is it worth buying more ram, to have totaly 8gb in dual channel?

 

Will i get any preformance boost?

 

ty and sry for bad english

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 | http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

Are you having any issues, with the things you do on your pc with 4 gigs? if so then yes... running low on ram can be pretty bad for the pc, and will lead to general weirdness...

it would also be optimal if you got 1600mhz ram, but seeing as you already have one stick of 1333mhz, if you need more just get another one of the one you use right now..

Sometimes i fell like my need's more ram. Can i overclock this memory from 1333mhz to 1600mhz?  I have very good mobo and overclocking potencial on her its very very good.

You could very well try... im using 1600mhz ram right now that can hit 2000mhz with pretty good timings, so it should be fine... overclocking ram is fairly simple, as it either works or it doesn't, so its easy to see when you hit the limit...
