DDR PC2100 DDR PC2700 DDR PC3200 DDR PC3500 DDR PC3700 DDR PC4000 DDR PC4200 DDR PC4400 DDR2 PC4200 EDO Simms Rambus PC1066 Rambus PC800 SDRAM PC100 SDRAM PC133 SDRAM PC66 Which one do you use for gaming?
The best would probably be DDR3-1600 PC12800 why? also it's not widely available and it's very expensive... not to mention that motherboards which suport it are only engineering samples... or maybe R RAM, but I don't know a ton about R... and what the best is would be the one which works on your system, well, what motherboard do you have? That's the only way to determine it atleast. then, the bracket falls into not the ratings slapped on RAM for marketting purposes, but the microchips used on it, the quality of PCB board, and to a very small extent the programming implemented into the RAM. ======================= here is my current ranking of each ype assuming average quality for each one DDR PC2100 - accpetable DDR PC2700 - OK DDR PC3200 - decent DDR PC3500 - decent DDR PC3700 - decent DDR PC4000 - allright DDR PC4200 - good DDR PC4400 - good DDR2 PC4200 - acceptable EDO Simms - crap, hasn't been used for over a decade Rambus PC1066 - very expensive, high latency and only moderate bandwidth, mediocre Rambus PC800 -mediocre SDRAM PC100 - hasn't been used for almost a decade, cruddy overall SDRAM PC133 - hasn't been used for nearly half a decade, mediocre SDRAM PC66 - hasn't been used much in the last half decade, nevre mass produced, still expensive and so-so performance
