Why don't you shutup and stop trolling.
Why don't you loving read the topic? I made a comment, then megascience decided he'd try to jump in and tell me how leet 512mb is.
Alti, are you sure you don't have anything that slows your computer down on?
Yes, I'm sure. I'm running 2 instances of firefox with many tabs open, xfire, trillian, steam, all on the 600mb RAM eating OS of Vista.
No. I now have a computer that has 2 GB of built in RAM, but it's still as slow as my last one that had 512. It depends on the computer, graphics card, space used, etc.
Though it is painfully obvious what I meant, I'll reply to you. 512mb means you can't run as much. If you're only running the OS and Firefox, no stuff, it will be faster. I'm talking about non-bullstuff here, such as running a few modern-day programs that take up RAM, games (HL2 alone takes up 600mb on mine, and it is a few years old.), and memory-intensive tasks. I'm not even going to ask why you have 512mb RAM in your faster machine.
