Added more memory

M

Marty

Flightless Bird
Just wanted to post this, if anyone out there is contemplating
increasing memory on their machines and not sure it is worth it.



Installed Win 7 in Nov and for the most part liked what I
saw. I had only (!!! I remember 256KB but that's another story) 1 GB
memory installed and performance was OK.

Just upgraded to 2GB and what an improvement. Startup is 50% faster
as is shut down.

Application Windows open faster and all around performance is great.

I have a new laptop with W 7 64 bit which came with 6 G. It really
flies. Memory is said to be more important than the processor but you
need 64 bit to access more than 3-4G of RAM.

Assuming that the processor is at least of some decent speed, yes
that's generally true. But be aware that adding more memory is
beneficial only up to a certain point, and where that point is depends
on what apps you run. 6GB of RAM is more than most people can make
effective use of. Only those who run particularly memory-hungry apps
will see a benefit with that much.

Yes, but let me clarify what the situation is:

All 32-bit client versions of Windows (not just Vista/XP/7) have a 4GB
address space (64-bit versions can use much more). That's the
theoretical upper limit beyond which you can not go.

But you can't use the entire 4GB of address space. Even though you
have a 4GB address space, you can only use *around* 3.1GB of RAM.
That's because some of that space is used by hardware and is not
available to the operating system and applications. The amount you can
use varies, depending on what hardware you have installed, but can
range from as little as 2GB to as much as 3.5GB. It's usually around
3.1GB.

Note that the hardware is using the address *space*, not the actual
RAM itself. If you have a greater amount of RAM, the rest of the RAM
goes unused because there is no address space to map it to.

I am assuming that because this is 64 bit W 7 that my apps can use the
extra ram. Correct? I use a lot of graphic programs and have noticed
much speeding up in using them.

(I did not add ram. The laptop came with 6 G).

4 gig of ram with a 64 dual core processor and 64 bit WIndows 7 moves
along fairly fast.

New laptops and desktops with 6 or 8 G of ram are becoming fairly
common. I see that as VERY good news, it means you needn't upgrade
your new PC in order to use it and it means it'll be good for future
software.

My last laptop came with 512 M of ram and needed an immediate upgrade,
that was typical a couple of years ago.

Because it's 64-bit, yes. The fact that it;s Windows 7 is not
relevant.

Yes, graphics programs are among those *most* likely to be able to
make good use of such a large amount of RAM. They are examples of what
I meant by "memory-hungry" above.

I've got 9 Gigs of tri-RAM, and I haven't really noticed any
performance wonders. I think more than 4 Gigs ran only makes a big
difference when programs are optimized to use it -- otherwise, it
doesn't do much. So I've read, anyway.

Or those who run their 64-bit Linux boxes all day and all night:

I will say that I generally like 64-bits, especially in Linux. Hardly any
use for ia32-libs these days.

In Windows, there's still a lot of 32-bit code around. Nonetheless, Win 7
64-bit ain't too bad.

I wonder if "Hadron" will go after him for bragging about being an

Actually, the thought of an "MVP" probably gets "Hadron" slippery.

There you go, lying like the troll you are. I am married and get laid
whenever I want. Oops.

By the way, I don't use Linux because I need to get work done and that is
why I go with a Windows solution. Quality OS and quality software all the
way.

You just stick with that INFERIOR Ubuntu and fart around with those 25,000
Open Sores packages! LOL!
