New to forum, with a newbie type question. I built this rig in 2006, and have decided it’s time to rebuild. Understanding memory is a little gray at this point in time. I’m trying to learn to make an educated purchase. I’m looking at either the F3-1866C10D-16GAB or F3-1600C9D-16GXM. I don’t understand the difference between DDR3 1600 and DDR3 1866. I’m not committed to either of these memory sticks, but they stand out right now.
I’ve narrowed it down to three processors. AMD FX-8120, AMD FX-8150, and AMD FX-8350
The motherboard will be the ASUS M5A99FX PRO R2.0.
The most memory intense program will be video editing. Second Photoshop.
Can someone explain in laymen terms the differences and advantages of the F3-1866C10D-16GAB and F3-1600C9D-16GXM? The cost difference between the two is immaterial. I’m looking to build a system that will last me for years as this one has.
