The games of today are pretty hard on most of the components of a pc and I have my main box that has 8 gigs and see a noticeble difference in seamless transitions when either going from one zone, next area, crowded areas with online gaming, etc so I am going to bring my new laptop up to at least that level and want matched because as u know it peforms better.
It also develops less stress on the cpu trying to compensate for what the RAM should be handling in the 1st place.
PS- any takers on 3 stix of Kingston 2gig 204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1333? -- Matched
