Yes, I agree with shawty. The overall system (not OS) could detect the 4GB ram but it is the matter of OS only.

for notebook, there is shared memory that been use for built in video card. That mean, by default the available storage will be lower than what install.

For 4GB ram, you should know that the OS must be 64bit OS to be able to detect the 4GB capacity. Else, if the OS unable to detect all the available space, OS will not able to utilize the available space fully.

Vista needs more than 2GB ram. Thus, if you use Vista 64, try to use 4GB ram if you afford to do so.

Hope someone can explain more about PF. It seems im forgot some details about page file

Currently, indeed it quite enough for normal task operation.

But if we look for upcoming games which will available soon this year, 4GB will become more on demand as many games and applications will evolve with the need of more RAM spaces.

It depends on your need. Crucial quite good but more heat than other. As for OCZ, you have to pick the right module by do some research in various review website. This is because not all OCZ are able to run in default clock and timing with all setup.

Try to look for SLi ready RAM.

Hi guys.. Need help from u guys.. I hv read sumwhere telling that if your mobo only support DDR2 533mhz, u can still use DDR2 667mhz coz the mobo will automaticly downclock your ram to 533mhz.. izzit true?

coz currently i'm using 512mhz ram on my laptop and i wanted to upgrade my laptop ram to 2gb dual-channel (1gb x 2).. but the thing is 1gb ddr2 667 is much more cheaper and easier to find than the 533mhz.. and my laptop only support ddr2 533mhz (read it at intel website <-- dunno true or not)..

so back to question.. can i use the ddr2 667mhz instead of the 533mhz? if 667mhz can be use instead of 533mhz do they have any impact (performance/future defect/problems)? and do 1gb ddr2 667mhz X 2 (2gb dual-channel) with give a same effect as 1gb ddr2 533mhz X 2 (2gb dual channel) on the mobo that support only ddr2 533mhz?

here's my laptop model:

Acer Travelmate 4021NWLMi
Intel Pentium M proc 725 (1.6ghz, 400Mhz FSB, 2MB L2 cache)
Intel 915GM Express chipset

btw izzit relevent if upgrade my laptop to 2gb ram based on my laptop spec  blush.gif ? or i should just use 1gb ram (512 x 2) instead?

hope u guys can help explain it to me.. anyway thanx in advance..  icon_rolleyes.gif

In my opinion, there is no problem to use the DDR2 667Mhz even though the laptop support up to 533Mhz. Indeed, it will automatically downclock the frequency in the first place.

Hope this will you. Good luck. thumbup.gif

You can check DUal channel mode through CPU-Z.

Value RAM normally do not stated that it is value ram. Only Performance RAM have special name. For e.g Kingston HyperX.
