Not every chipset can support 1T settings.If you are not going to overclock 1T or 2T timing will not give you huge performance increment.

yea... you'll definitely experience performance increase

DDR 1 prices are droppin like crazy.....,(justifying my sudden uncontrolable desire to wanna upgrade...)

Now is new era of 2Gb barrier memory capacities above liao...... some more windows vista is gonna release soon, using alot of system memory to run that Windows Vista OS...... according 1Gb barrier capacities of RAM is now not very popular soon, it will gonna face out soon......

1 GB is ngam ngam to be comfortable with current apps and most games under XP. For Vista, definitely need 2 GB or more

Hopefully ram prices will be cheaper in the future, I wouldn't mind getting 4GB if the total price is less than RM1K in the future but it wouldn't be possible, by then, DDR3 will be out and again, the high prices.

juz upgraded to 2gb last week..
it shows quite a lot of differences from 1gb..
now, i can play all of the games that required lots of ram with ease..
last time i used 1gb and play battlefield2142, it takes quite a time to quit from the game, but when use 2gb, it quits so fast..
i can also play gothic 3 with full settings!

i really2 recommended all of u to upgrade to 2gb..

That's good, at least you can feel the difference unlike some people, keep on telling me that there's no different or any benefits to use 2GB of ram. To me, the more ram, the better the system performance will be.

seems nowaday 1gb ram is essential n 2gb is for perfomance...

time to upgrade it seems

more RAM is always better. whoever told you no benefit needs a knock on the head, unless of course they meant really light usage.

i been using 2 gig ram since 2 years... i had to say it is very useful when u playing those high end game... probably by next year, more ppl will use 2 gig ram due to the launch of vista... that OS really ram hunger monster.. haha..

Well, sometimes I'll vomit blood talking to such people because they're not observant enough and they can't differentiate the performance gains with 1GB or 2GB of ram, they think it's the same. Of course, even for light usage like internet surfing, I could open at least a few applications running in the background and copying large documents will be a piece of cake. Anyway, I'm sure, in the future, computers will probably have 10GB of ram or more provided if the price is cheap, like you have mentioned, more ram is better but seeing that Win XP 32-bit doesn't support more than 3GB of ram, it's pointless to use 4GB at the moment.

future? i tot all new pc should come with 2gb?

Is it? really drop like crazy meh? how you know...??? Please enlighten me...

didnt drop maa... but increased...
now ddr2 is cheaper than ddr...
but lucky for me tat oledi change platform....

Hmm, 512MB x 4 is faster or 1GB x2 ?

I guess 1Gb x 2 is better...... some more save yr mobo DDR RAM slot too......

a few browsers tabs and a document is fine even with 512MB. i found 512MB vs 1GB difference is most tangible in applications like photoshop and even some games. (i'm fine with browsing on 256mb, as long as i don't open too many tabs)

Windows craves memory but even if it doesn't, once they understand how memory works they'll learn to appreciate more memory. heck even them *nix/nux and Mac OS would do better with more memory.

the earliest of the computers i own, had only less than 640k memory. and now we're having 1GB and approaching 2GB stage.

save mobo ram slot for what? for later upgrade?
for me it is better to fully utilised the mobo slot (if u hav the money, )..

use all, when upgrade, replace all
