I currently have 512mb of ddr2 at 4,4,4,12 timings and i want to upgrade to more memory. Would I be better off getting 1 gig of faster timing memory or 2 gigs of slower timings?which would be better for games and all around performance?

thx in advance

For anything but very specialized memory intensive apps (VMWare, Phtooshop, etc) anything more than 1Gb is a waste. Save your money.
