What i am noticing that with Single Rank DDR3 1866 Ram that CPU scores are ever so slightly higher but GPu performance is lower. I mean the performance wont exactly be noticeable either way in day to day tasks with this machine but the results point to the faster ram having more performance in productivity as im guessing the extra mhz helps keep the CPU fed with data.
Anyway. More fun with this old system and my other friends 660Ti which has seemingly with stood the test of time. (Its now on its 3rd owner *ME* and this thing is still alive...)
-- Everything is bone stock. This board is a budget gigabyte GA-Z87-HD3 so no overclocking for this boy. Just regular Time Spy and Fire Strike because if i try the 'extreme' benchmarks 3DMark just CTDs so im guessing its something to do with the 660Ti not having full DX12 compatibility (if i have read correctly)
I thought i would kill some time by running some benchmarks and see how much this system gets demolished. The previous owner of this setup ran a lot of guildwars 2 on it and it served him just fine but one day it stopped working and even though i could fix it. He opted for a complete new system anyway.
