Ram Upgrade... Go Go... Or No Go

[=98=]

64bit is just a pain in the posterior. Drivers are few and far between. Go 32bit for now.

Ok,

Currrently i have 2Gb 2 x 1Gb Dual Channel memory!

Im thinking of upgrading to 4Gb buying the Ram which someone suggested early in the threads from overclockers its only £36 and seems great ram!

Ok.. So..

Is it really worth it?
Would i see any difference?
Is the ram good?

System Specs In Sig!

Thanks!

you will not see more fps there is nothing that uses 4gb of ram right now.. don't go with 3 that will do more harm then good.. if you're going for more then go with 4..

educate me plz, whats advantaes of the 64 ? & is xp pro 64bit?
mine only says xp service pack 2, but im sure its most likely 32bit.

There are many versions of Windows, but as far as I know all 64 bit versions are explicitly named so.
Pro, Ultimate, Enterprise etc. are names for Windows versions with different features, but still 32 bit as standard.

Wiki has some info about the advantages and disadvantages of 64 bit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows...al_x64_Edition.

I don't really think 64 bit windows has caught on. Where I work we have loads of (expensive) servers running various windows, but I have never seen a 64 bit windows being used.

I think he just confused the different threads he has created, here is the other one.

that is good to know, i've allways heard 64bit & i knew vista had it, but i never knew there was a xp with 64bit.

ya know with ram , alot of people forget to check the MB specs to see how much it will hold. I think all the latest ones are 4 gig, but i think some a few yrs old might not be.

Motherboards will hold up to 8gb (2gbx4), some even more. You can get workstation/gaming motherboards such as the Tyan Tiger or Tyan Thunder which will hold stupendous amounts.

dang i didnt think they held that much, i must have a old MB , well i know i do its allmost 3 yrs old but it only hold 4 gig. but maybe thats before they came out with 2 gig sticks.
but i have three 3 gig sticks & thats all i need for now.:salute:
