DDR3 may have higher numbers than DDR2, but do not let that get in the way of using the better DDR3. The faster speeds more than make up the difference.

Now that am using Win7 64bit, kind of wish I went with 8 GB instead of 4 GB of ram.

In real world use, having a lower CAS makes little/no difference.

If intending to purchasing from newegg.ca again,
Less costly alternatives with better performance,
- F3-12800CL9D-8GBRL
- F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL
