I recently bought a new Mac G4 800mhz (trashed win-tel) and replaced the 256mb stick that came in it with (ram I use is Crucial only) 2 256mb CL2 sticks and 1 512mb CL3 (which I thought was CL2, arrrg). My question is do you think that I should replace the 512 stick with just another 256mb CL2 stick to keep my memory at CL2 because you know the 512mb stick causes all of the memory to run at CL3 or do you think performance gain is just minimal? Keep in mind that I am a hardcore performance freak and I believe that you should never compromise! (I know I should have bought the faster chips but I had to save some of my money for new software like PS and my wife wanted Office X).
BTW, Any recommendations for a fast I/O subsystem (i.e. RAID controllers, SCSI controllers, or just a really fast ATA controller)?
You guys make having a Mac fun!
