It allows for more processing but a program has to be designed to take advantage of that extra memory to really make use of it. Games right now don't. I seriously doubt that Planetside is going need a person to allocate anywhere near that much memory to it to run the game extremely well.

You render 200 enemies simultaneously and tell me low latency isn't important. Also, I plan on overclocking my computer when necessary, before upgrading, so the RAM is good for that as well. |

Hell if you have a 3.06ghz P4 w/ a Radeon 9700 pro and 512mb of ram and you have problems running a game the bottleneck is going to be in the vid card in that setup. Vid card can't keep up with the rest of the system. Maybe as we get more advanced in games and programs the need for more ram might come into play but as of now, normal programs and games don't require anywhere near that much. With the exception of Photoshop, 3Dstudio max, etc., which will eat away at your memory. You can just throw whatever you have at it and they can always use alot more.

[Edit: I also have done lots of photo editting, and more importantly video editting and creation, which as you said, eats more then I can imagine, and I am a very impatient person ] |

When your comp starts up, theres a 6 digit number that tallies up real fast. Take the first three numbers and that is how many megs of ram you have. If you have more than six, you're fine.

I think he means how much ram he has left while in windows...
Annyways, if you're using winXP heres how you tell: Hit ctr+alt+del click the performance tab look where it says physical memory the total is the amount of free ram take the number thats next to availbe and divide it by 1024... there ya go, amount of free RAM |

Then, i recomend this: ftp://ftp.cs.tu-berlin.de/pub/msdos/...k/cachm511.exe
http://www.outertech.com Their homepage.. Tho i do NOT recomend that you change annything at all whit the program unless you know how to use it, do NOT dick around whit it. It's perfectly safe to run and see how much memory you have free tho, just don't mess whit the more advanced things. |
