ram is dirt cheep dude
u can get 4G of ram for 60 bucks on newegg
i mean if you have to choose 4g and a 8600 or 2g and a 8800 deff the 2g
but with ram so cheep
4g is being the standard
Yeah but its horrible quality RAM. Buy some high quality OCZ ram and then some no-name brand that cost $15 per gig, and you'll see the difference immediately.
2gb is by far not the standard for home usage. 2gb on XP computers is considered a luxury, and on Vista is a relatively powerful system. Most people only use their computers for internet, word processing, viewing pictures, and music. For which 2gb on Vista or XP is overkill if you ask me.
And for the majority of games 2gbs is more than enough. Over which better performance increases would be seen by investing in other components.
For %99 of tasks, (pretty much all excluding playing crysis at high settings and professional video editing), 2gb is plenty.
