Cheers all. Ryan 2400 RAM will get you a better score if the 8350 can run RAM that high. My Sandy Bridge machine can't, 2133 is the max.

Yeah i know mate but with ram double the price it was a year ago i won't be buying any for a good while. The price is set to sky rocket too due to that fire

What fire?

There was a fire in the Hynix RAM fab plant.......and they supply about 33% of RAM to the market.
