What sort of improvement can I expect if I blow a few hundred bucks on OCZ stuff?
Make sure that you check the ram manufacturer's site for motherboard compatibility.(unfortunate that my Asus mobo won't work with OCZ, Geil...or pretty much any other performance ram)
OCZ ram is pretty well known for performance, and some modules can obtain the lowest latency possible (2-2-2-5).
Great for overclocking (hishest spped they sell is ddr600/pc4800...this is ddr, not ddr2) and OCZ doesn't void your warranty for OCing the ram yourself
good ram is also important for overclocking your cpu.
