I have heard so many people say that any gaming machine should have at least 1 gig of ram. I have two gaming machines, one at my dad's and one at my mom's. Both of them only have 512. The one at my dad's is far newer and better then the one at my mom's. These are its specs: Radeon 9600 128mb, 512 RAM, Pentium4 2.8GHz. I can't remember the specs on the other one but the processor is aproxmatly 1.5 GHz and the video card is about a year old $200 Nvidia. My dad's comp runs anything from planetside to farcry as smooth as a baby's ass. My mom's comp lags like a bitch on planetside. I haven't tried many other recent games. Would adding extra ram to my mom's computer help with the lag? Also, if 1 gig of ram is so important like everyone says, then how does my dad's computer run so smoothly?
