I was browing around NewEgg.com and found some good deals on RAM and thought maybe now was the time to upgrade. I have 2 512's and I'd like 2 more or 2 more gig ones (yes, a 2-3GB machine.) I was looking at reviews though and lots of people were mentioning the Latency ratings of the RAM and that you need to pay attention to that. From what I can tell the current RAM i have is 2-3-2-5 Latency. Most of the RAM i see available are like 2-3-2-6, 2-3-3-7, etc etc. Will having these 2 different latency sets drastically affect my performance in a negative way? Will a 2-3-2-6 dramatically hurt my 2-3-2-5? If its a negligable thing then I'll just get the RAM, but if I'm sacrificing speed for storage, then I may wait a bit more. Any info on this is appreciated. Thanks.
