I have 4 gb ram and one of my sticks failed, so I had to switch to a DDR2-667 (the working 1066 model is almost worthless now). My CPU is OC-ed to 3.4ghz with stock voltage. I'm asking if this affects my gaming performance or if it's just shown in benchmarks? My MBO doesn't support DDR3, which I know is from 2016.

If the new stick you used to replace the bad one is slower, it will reduce some of the overall performance.
