8 gigs of f***ing ram

[Shawn]

I needed faster ram so that I could overclock. Decided to get 8gigs since it was cheap and on sale ($45 AR). Dunno what to do with all of it. 😕 I'm only using 1.67GB. Superfetch isn't even using all of it. Still have close to 700Mb free.

Play like 4 games of WoW at once, and then brag about it on teh intrawebs.

I use my extra ram to spread peanut butter.

I don't play wow, or any games other than RTS games.

I didn't think there was an OS out there yet that can utilize over 4gig of ram.

Anyone 64bit version of Windows can. Limit is 128GB I think.

I'm running Windows 7 64bit.

😕 moi?...

I've maxed out 8GB before doing photo editing.

I forget how much I have, but it is enough (even for video editing/compression) that I don't notice slowdowns and that's all that counts. Overkill is a good term.

Since there's a thread about A&A tonight, this thread makes me want to sing the overkill song my friends and I used to sing when someone would attack one guy with like fifty armies.

I use ram sticks to scratch the center of my back sometimes.

I ran 8Gb for a little while (Win7 x64)..then built another system and split it to 4Gb/ea..at $9.99 for 4Gb, I just couldn't pass it up.

Install vmware then make a vista vm so you can mess around with it. That should use a good 4-5Gigs right there. 😛
