The one gig of ram results!


Well today i got my gig of ram 2 sticks of DDR400 wich regretfully has to ruin at a maximum of DDR266 speeds, luckily however i was able to get the cas settings dow to 2.0! and i'm in the process of lowering the other Latencies as well.

Anyway i recorded some PS fps at different times
(before, with the new Nvidia drivers witch lowered my FPS alot but boosted IQ enough to be worth it)
30-50 in sanc
20-35 in small squad battle
20-30 in mild zerg
5-20 in uberzerg

Now i get
30-50
20-40
20-35
10-25

not much of an increase is it but there is one thing that stood out, the door loading was gone, conts loaded relativly quickly and the slowdows do to pingspikes wer substantialy less. I now have no problems with the FPS rate i get in this game, even the 15-20 fps that i get are perfectly playable.

Anyway if you don't have a gig, or don't have two sticks to dual channel with i REALY recomend getting a matched stick to the one you have or a new set.
