I've got an i7 870 running at 4.2ghz and I've been thinking of upgrading, you it doesn't really seem worth it buying a new mobo+cpu+ram just for video games and web browsing.
Would upgrading the ram from 4x 2GB DDR3 1333MHz to 2x 8GB DDR3 2133MHz be a noticeable upgrade?
>inb4 SSD
Already have one.

could be worth a few fps, but it's not going to make it a new computer.

I understand that. I'd be happy with a moderate performance increase. You think 10-15% seems a reasonably expectation? I've noticed some games like fallout 4 are heavily affected by ram speeds.

lads..

No, more like 2-5%

That's sad having cellulite at that age. That fatty is going to be morbidly obese by the time they're in their 20s.
Think long and hard about what games you MIGHT wanna play.
If you cant upgrade your CPU instead of your MOBO or your GPU then maybe go ahead.
Your ram is perfectly fine.

Damn, nice girl. Would bang. One question tho, who fucking wears a push-up in the beach? Come on man. But maybe it's because I'm an eurofag and used to young women being tits nude in local beach.

I'm not!! lol!!

Does ram speed actually affect anything but the iGPU?

16gb will help if you're running low in games on 8gb and hitting the swap too hard
it helps a lot for browsing and shit though, web shit is a massive memory hog
desu just update your cpu and motherboard too, newer stuff is a big leap in performance
t. i7 860, 3930k and 6700k

be sure your cpu/mobo can support faster ram. some of them are locked bcus aids.

I don't think 2133mhz ram would work on clarksdale motherboard. They had a limit about 1600 or so.
>>58434171
They have a limit of 1333, but they did bclk overclock so the sky is the limit
