Default another question
i got 512mb ram and was thinking about adding another 512 to my computer. Will it actually be worth it since my computer appears to be running as fast as it can?

Possibly, it has a lot to do with your processor. My specs are min 1 GB. This should be in the Hardware forum...

it depends if you use any programs that need it.. any new games are better served with a gig

what they said.... i also have a gig now.... 512 originally tho

i think its worth the upgrade if u play games.... if its just a work computer tho, that you do a lot of office junk or whatever on then probably not worth it

Its worth it if you do intense gaming 1024

if you work with photos a lot.....more is definitley needed.

Edited the title and moved to hardware forum
