<description><![CDATA[Red Green posted : The reason I'm wanting to put 4 gigs is Windows 7 has the ability to pre-cache most used programs in any unused memory.  The system itself may only use 2 gigs, but the other 2 gigs can be used for program loading.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[pandora posted : I've installed Windows 7 (32 bit beta) on an older PC with just 1 GB. I subsequently upgraded it to 1.5 GB. That did improve performance somewhat. I also have a newer PC which I bumped from 2 GB to 4 GB and ran the 32 and 64 bit beta and now the 64 bit RC on. The bump from 2 to 4 GB made almost no difference.<br><br>You shouldn't have trouble running Windows 7 on your PC, in my experience going from 2 to 4 GB doesn't affect overall system performance that much. At least not for the stuff I do.<br><small>--<br>"People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use."</small>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Camelot One posted : I'm not sure why you would "need" 4Gb of ram for Win7. But Asus posts a memory list for each of their boards, showing the make/model and verified working configurations.
