Memory

Hi,

I'm running Vista 64-bit with an Athlon 64 X2 4600 and windows feels a
bit slow.

I've currently got 1GB of RAM, would an upgrade to 2GB be of benefit?

Re: Memory

It certainly would, I have been running Vista x64 for the past 15 months now
and I just notice it loves memory, the more you give it, the better the
performance.

I'm using 32bits version with core 2 e6400, 1gb ddr400 and 7900gs and it's damn fast. Faster than XP thanks to superfetch. For games, specially new games like gothic III, 2 gb will be better but i think we'll have to wait for better drivers and benchmarks
