2GB on an old system

omne · 19 Aug 2007 at 15:33

My current PC is an XP3200 with 1GB XMS3200, NF7-S2G and a 7600GS, I was just wondering if I'd see much difference jumping to 2GB given the old cpu, I can get 2x1GB sticks for £60.

Will the difference be worth it? Can't afford a new build right now since I'm budgetting for a car.

you will see a diference in loading times especially with latest games also when handling large files. if wa sme i would get he 2gb sell the 1gb you all ready have that way wont of cost you much.

Nope. The extra memory will more than make up for the looser timings.
