How much do you guys have? I have 512 PC2700. Is this enough since winXP is so memory hungry?

I use a 256meg card.

I normally have 197meg free for gaming. Or at least, that's the max I've seen it go to. I think I've got about 16meg for I/O.

I have 512 too and about 400+ for gaming. Since the game only loads what it needs into memory, I doubt you'll need anymore.



Hey Baby, want to play with my computer?
 
Running 512 PC 2700 no probs.

Always listen to experts. They'll tell you what can't be done, and why. Then do it. <A HREF="http://www.btvillarin.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=327" target="_new">MY SYSTEM</A>
 
Ive used 786 for a while now, but am down to 256 for touble shooting, and games still run fine

You dont have an <b>ANY</b> key? Your keyboard must not be Windows XP certified...
 
512MB of RAM is all you should need unless you are doing a lot of video editing or high end rendering.

I use 512 MB PC-1066, i might upgrade to 1028 just for the heck of it. I just got my comp working so i am not sure about how it runs in games. So far its great though.
 
PC2100 786 here with Asus A7N266-C

I have around 580 megs free to run other apps on.

512 is good

A 5 foot work fan, plastic sheeting for the funnel, some tubing, and duct tape is all you need for a cooling system. :wink:
