    512 is more than enough for pretty much anything people do with pcs tbf.

    You need a gig for stuff like Doom 3 and Far Cry to run at their best.

    1 gig is also good for running with no swap disc too :love: :D

    Got a gig in this box and it runs like a dreeeeeam :D

    Doesnt touch the swapfile cos it doesnt need to :up:

    Thats the difference with windows, it uses the swapfile (which is slow and slows down machine) regardless of if u have enuff ram or not! :spangled:

    Never seen the logic in that one!!

    Greedy...

    Rob, I must be a ram carnivore. I'm running 1G and looking to boost that to 2G. SX and all my music platforms are ram munchers.

    Yeah but 99% of people don't play these games or know what a swap file is. For normal win xp activities you cannot tell the difference between 512 and 1 gig without running benchmarks so therefore it's all a bit pointless imho.
