My previous setup consisted of 2 x 512mb RAM so I just put in the single 2gb RAM alongside with one 512mb RAM to get 2.5GB RAM.... and it doesn't feel any different. Sure, it started my Vista up a little faster but what situations would having more RAM help?
You can have a lot more open applications, and resource intensive programs will be faster/more efficient (especially games).Harsky said:In the end, I ended up going for a Kingston 2gb RAM.

I know BF2's loading times really depended on the amount of RAM.Gman 101 said:Lee79 said:Gaming loading times and running multiple applications/programs at the same time which not many people do anyway.
Program loading times is more of an HDD speed thing I believe... but it's definitely a must to have more ram if you wanna multitask (which I do all the time).
