    Question Why more RAM makes programs load WAY faster?

    I had 4gb ram, now i have 8gb. For example visual studio took 1 minute to fully load and be responding to input. Now it does for 8-10 seconds. The difference is massive. When i had 4gb, my RAM didn't "overflow" at all. So that wasnt the culprit. Maybe it finds free space faster when allocating...

    Question Why is an i5 with higher clock speeds worse than a i7?

    Sandisk Ultra 2 SSD really low speeds.

    I just got a Sandisk Ultra 2 SSD and the speeds are really slow. 224 Read and 223 Write. The box says it has read and write speeds of 500. Could it be because my mobo only has Sata 3.0GB/s. If so are the speeds normal for that Sata interface?
