    Is there any difference? Would it be worth the upgrade of my OCZ Reaper 800 to the OCZ Reaper 1200? I run 4-4-4-12 timings on the 800 and the 1200 apparently runs at 5-5-5-15. Am I just wasting the $60?

    unless your an extreme pc enthusiast, you wont see much of a difference

    the difference u'd be negligible...2x2GB 1066 kit u'd be a nice choice though with tight timings>eirher from corsair, g.skill, OCZ

    It's quite useless for gamers.

    I'd spend the extra money on more GB.

    Would it allow me to OC the FSB more due to the higher mhz?

    The FSB is the FSB, RAM is RAM.


    Sure, FSB speed affects your RAM sometimes. Sure, a higher rated or better RAM module will be able to achieve much higher clocks. But RAM does not have major effects on processor/FSB overclocking.


    The difference obtained by overclocking your RAM is neglible, so I recommend you go spend it on larger memory.
