Though it's not your question, I'd reccomend 4x512 sticks since that'll give you better performance than 4x1gb. Especially considering it's doubtful that anything but a server box could manage more than 1gb of usage. I've rarely seen it go above 500mb, actually....
Jam it back in, in the dark. |

Wrong. Windows and most windows programs need the pagefile. From prior experience with high-ram systems, lowering or turning off the pagefile does not increase performance, however it does increase compatibility problems. Many programs, such as Photoshop, refuse to run unless there is a significant page file.
And you guys forget, programs would have to be coded to take advantage of 4gb of ram. And that's ridiculous. There's absolutely no reason to store that much information in RAM, not even for video editing. 2GB is enough for HDTV in video editing, jeez. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
