Just got the Dell Dimension 8100 computer 1.4Ghz, 128MB RDRAM, running Window ME...
My questions...
1. Why does it run like my old generic 500Mhz with 128MB SDRAM... no noticeable difference... why?
2. Maybe I need more RAM, but gosh RDRAM cost $$$$. I heard that they might phase out RDRAM, is that true?
3. Also, if I upgrade, the people at DELL in their infinite wisdom has added 2 X 64MB RDRAM. Now should I get 2 X 64MB RDRAM to get to 256 RDRAM which will cost $300.00 or should i just get 2x128 RDRAM at $500.00 and end up with 384MB RDRAM... the thing is if i go for 2x64, i have to replace everything... later... will the price go down on RDRAM?
The crappy thing is that I don't even notice any improvment with this RDRAM thing...
