Luckily the timings, speed and voltage were the same as my old ones so I pulled the trigger. Works like a charm. My experience was a much smoother gameplay and a few FPS extra. Flightsims dig ram IMO. But you have a 2gb graphics card though so you might not get the same increase as me.
Theres no point in having more than 4GB if the game iswritten in 32 Bit... even if your OS is 64 Bit, the Game (or any other 32 Bit aplication) will still be restricted to using a Maximum of 2GB Memory Max.

Hopefully Oleg has made a 32 Bit and 64 Bit version, just like they done with Crysis and FarCry for example.
