Unless you have an integrated GPU that shares system RAM, and play 3D
shooters at high res, you shouldn't notice a difference between 1333 and
1600. You're looking at 21.2 vs 25.6 GB/s with a dual channel setup, or
about 17% difference. Other than 3D games, the applications required to
bring this bandwidth difference to the surface are probably applications
you'll never run. My use of the word "application" here excludes
benchmark programs, such as STREAM or linpack, obviously.
