Re: Windows Vista and RAm

Ok ty. They are still arguing with me, even though I went to the "can You Run It" site and it surpassed all the recommended settings for the game. Sometimes I think the forums is not a very good place for information.

It's up to you. If you want to play it safe, get 3GB.

It couldn't hurt. Is it still inexpensive? I read at one time RAM was pretty cheap. Of course it's like the stock market..lol.

Depending on what speed of RAM you need.

Most computers come with DDR2-667, but if the current ones in there are DDR2-800 and you add in DDR2-667, that will drop them to the same speed.

Could you tell me how I can find out exactly which type of memory I need? And, I forget the site everyone uses for those types of things. On the tip of my tongue...grr!

RAM is dirt cheap. I paid just under $50 for 2 sticks of 2GB DDR2 for 4 total.

Newegg has some DDR2-800 on sale now for $37 for 4 GB.

I threw 4GB in my 32 bit machine Vista Ultimate computer(it was cheaper for me to put 4gb in than 3gb). It'll access 3.581GB of it and I am currently using 2.180GB of that right now, so adding a few more sticks to your machine won't hurt. It'll most likely help, and it is not that expensive.

NEWEGG! That's the place! LOL I couldn't think of the name to save me! LOL. Thanks. Now I just need to figure out how to see exactly which type of memory I need.
