Back to school!!
Nice, any reason not to buy the 6950 TFIII Power edition?
got the model name from lynx but you're right there's no such model and I have made a mistake as well - it's not a 4GB single stick rather it's 2x 2GB sticks and I think this is the right model name for this 2000 Mhz Kit
G-Skill F3-16000CL9D-4GBTD (2Gx2)

i think then that 1600mhz ram will suffice?
For an AMD setup 1600Mhz will suffice because their CPUs are not strong enough to use all the bandwidth they have available.
In fact HT 3.1 has over twice the bandwidth vs QPI lol.

see this -
AnandTech - The AMD A8-3850 Review: Llano on the Desktop
we are talking of integrated gpu. it likes more speed.
Oh that.
Obviously that is expected. GDDR5 is a much faster architecture than DDR3.
I thought you were referring to CPU performance

Will certainly post the pics once i install it will hopefully be done by today eve ... @tkin and topgear
cudnt get the TF III anywhere in the market and even after searching the whole of lamington rd market for the card the only place i got the card available was Prime and they also only had 1 piece of this card in stock the other place i asked said that they did not stock any high end cards and that if i payed an advance amt they will have it shipped over from chennai in 3 days and have it ready for me i did not have that much time in hane coz of office and also heard that TF III would have cost around 2K more infact buying this card and the fans ive already blown my whole month's salary in 1 shot bt anyways hope this card will satisfy all my needs till now until i need another card all i can do is keep my fingers crossed
and also the quote i got for the MSI HD 6970was 21K from another vendor and the ASUS version of 6950 is also 18K

From where did you get GDDR5 ram? The review Jas has given also showing DDR3 ram performance. The AMD integrated GPU in Llano does not use separate GDDR5 memory, it uses the same DDR3 memory your system is using, with same king of X86-X64 memory architecture as the processor. Actually all we are trying to highlight that with more higher clocked DDR3 memory, the IGP performance of Llano GPU is also getting increased.
No, that is not what I menat.
I meant that if the IGPU would get dedicated GDDR5 VRAM, it would perform better due to higher speeds and data transfer rates vs the DDR3 system RAM that is being used.
An 3600Mhz (900 actual, Afterburner report as 1800) GDDR5 would be faster than 2Ghz (1000 Actual) DDR3 RAM.

If we can suggest 2000 Mhz ram why stick with 1600 Mhz and read this :

So why would we want to sacrifice 7.4% performance just for 500 bucks but if you are sure that G.Skill Ripjaws F3-12800CL9S-4GBRL can run at 1866 Mhz feel free to suggest it for Liano rigs

TP i know. but i wasnt able to find a single 4gb 2000mhz stick. thats why.
and G.skill rams are good overclockers.
