I have a good deals on RAM, look at my siggy. Large memory size better if u do multitasking. DDR4 is a new game player.

8GB DDR3 because our current application still does not use the full speed of the memory.....but multitasking programs do require bigger memory space..

Depends on what your pc support.
If your pc has ddr3 slots and you buy ddr4 can't use also.

not much difference in terms of gaming. it depends on your system's bottleneck. if it was for 4gb vs 4gb, i'd definitely take ddr4. but in terms of budget vs performance i would probably go for 8gbddr3.

8GB anytime.

I took out 2 sticks of RAM (4GB) out of 4 sticks yesterday to see if I can run my games in 4GB environment, somehow game stop working because insufficient RAM.
