Re: What RAM rates a 5.9???

Mine has a WEI rating of 5.8. This is 2GB (2 x 1GB) of DDR400 (PC1-3200) running in dual channel mode with an AMD Athlon 64 3500+ on an NVidia NForce4 motherboard at standard clock frequencies (automatic settings in the BIOS). A lot depends on your system, and whether you are using single or dual channel mode. The AMD processors also have the advantage of having the memory controller built-in to the processor, which means that data transfer to and from the memory takes place over a dedicated bus rather than over the system bus.
