<0> if you dont use the extra RAM IT DOESNT MAKE A DIFFERENT HOW MUCH YOU HAVE
<0> if you only use 1.5 G the rest doesnt just sit there and make your system faster
<1> windows will always use the extra for cache
<2> ManKind: again, the OS _ALWAYS_ uses the RAM
<3> i see on forums people complaining all the time they cant get 2.3.2.5 only 2.5-3.2.5
<2> what tk11 said
<0> yes it does, but it doesnt use up all the ram in the system
<2> ManKind: yes it does
<0> it will use a finite amount
<0> H2SO4 you are a moron
<2> lol
<3> hahha
<3> damn it
<0> maybe an exchange server will grow to use all ram in the system
<0> but not the typical workstation
<2> and you dispense advice without understanding WTF you're on about
<1> 9x only used set ammounts... nt+ uses it all
<3> does everst have export to screenshot option?
<0> !quick H2SO4 go get a clue
<3> ouch
<0> ****ing douche
<3> so its torn over what to do hehe
<0> lol, pick one to listed to
<3> in reality 2GB is alot
<0> listen*
<3> game seems to be running great right now anyway
<3> way better then it ever has
<0> load it up with 2, see if it uses it all, if you go over 2, consider adding the others
<0> otherwise you are sacrificing speed for no reason
<3> game is using only over 500 right now
<3> i guess il stay with what I have right now
<3> do some more testing in the future
<1> it won't the in game speed of any game out now...
<1> affect
<3> wb H2SO4
<2> ManKind: peace. "Standby list" is your friend.
<1> it may affect how fast you can switch back to desktop if you have other apps that have been swapped out
<0> H2SO4 press ctrl shift esc....is your workstation using 100% of your RAM?
<0> exactly
<3> alright
<3> bbiab
<3> sorry for makin ya fight
<2> ManKind: you dont see all memory usage in task manager. Need a debugger attached for some things.
<3> whats a good app for benchmarking btw
<1> game timedemo if your worried about gaming performance
<0> H2SO4 but my point stands, if your workstation is using 1.5 of 2G of your RAM, another 1G on top of that won't speed anything up
<3> i was gonna run the defacto umm forget the name for game
<3> theres a special program jsut for games benchmarks
<0> unless you dip into that ram using heavy resources
<2> ManKind: in fact, the vast majority of the 'unused' RAM is in fact the system cache. The 'available' counters in taskman and perfmon include the size of the standby list. By definition, those pages are contributing to caching, even tho they're 'available'. Hence...
<2> All RAM is indeed used, always, within minutes after boot at most.
<3> Aquamark is one
<3> whats the other one
<2> but its not necessarily ascribed to a user-mode process that you can see in taskman
<0> that doesnt mean it will make your system faster by having 1.5G of cache over .5G cache
<3> its on the tip of my tounge
<2> ManKind: utter disagreement on that one :)
<3> some kind of Mark
<0> pcmark?
<0> H2SO4 sure sounds good
<3> naa the one that has elaborate 3d demos
<0> 3dmark
<1> more cache = faster
<3> bingo!
<2> what tk11 said
<3> hehe that should be a no brainer
<0> ugh
<0> at some point you stop gaining speed though
<1> very few apps are sensitive to ram timings anyways
<3> what ManKind is going at is I thnk at 2GB all that extra power dont translate to much when you could have it faster?
<2> ManKind: that's true
<1> true... at some point
<0> and you don't need 1.5G cache
<0> on top of used RAM
<3> with 2GB
<3> should I have a pagefile?
<1> but xp is enough of a pig to use well over 2GB
<1> yes
<0> shempanzy you should have a page file
<2> the returns you get from increasing cache from small->medium are much more noticable than medium->large, ditto large->huge
<2> but 2gb is not huge
<0> yes I agree, hence why I say try it with 2G, if you approach that often, then use more RAM
<3> tnx fellas
<3> now lets all hug!
<0> this is moot anyway. shempanzy load up your system, load your apps, see what RAM you use and go from there
<2> 16gb+PAE is more where its at before you start to worry about whether you're getting the most out of your system cache :)
<2> ewww
<1> it's just a mater of which will have a larger impact... timings or extra cache... I vote for the extra cache in this particular scenario
<3> hehe
<3> bbiab
<0> but if RAM is running %40 slower for an extra 256G stick, it isnt worth it
<4> make sure your ram matches up
<4> i.e. speed, latency
<2> compared to a HDD with a seek time of 7ms?
<1> timings won't cause a 40% drop though
<1> I'd guess 3% maybe
<4> umm, if your ram sticks dont have the same timing you will have problems
<0> shempanzy are they all PC3200?
<5> there.
<5> lol
<5> memory timings and Dual Channel as a topic is only good for about an hour..
<5> then it gets old.

<5> [H2SO4] but 2gb is not huge <-2GB is huge.. for Windows XP Pro, when it can only address 4GB total..
<3> hahha
