QUOTE(seok @ Jan 31 2007, 02:46 PM) hey guys. i just bought a kingston 1GB from lowyat (the shop at the back on IT floor that sells macs). he convinced me to get the KTA RAM for mac which costs RM630.. much more expensive than the normal ram. he said the performance is much better.. I've paid of course but i want to know if it's true or he's just bull shitting me. anyone care to clarify? Ouch.. Guess you been cheated/punk   |

QUOTE(seok @ Feb 1 2007, 01:59 PM) no I'm using Macbook.. and it's KTA notebook RAM that i bought. Yeah u're right i should enjoy it instead of whining how much overpriced it is. anyway i'm also wondering if i were to buy another 1GB later on, do u guys think it's ok to use one KTA and one other brand ram, such as corsair etc..? or is it better to use 2 same brand? am currently running 1.25GB It's better to use same brand if you want get DualChannel (64bit). Another alternative, you need get same speed ram(other brand) as your KTA for DualChannel to work. Sometimes with other brand, you still get dualchannel running. Or if you don't mind about dualchannel stuff, just get other brand as it much cheaper than KTA, unless you're rich  |

QUOTE(civic98 @ Feb 1 2007, 04:38 PM) He IS rich, he just bought 1GB RAM for RM630! Hehe.. Be rest assured he is enjoying it! The next question he needs to ask is the 2nd piece, should he get a KTA or normal. My guess is, NEITHER. 1.25GB is enough (well for me) 2GB RAM doesnt necessary help out in games due to max 64MB video memory. What I realised from my setup is I rarely use all 1.25GB of it. YA.. Need ask him whether got use parallels or some app(photoshop) eat lotz memory. For me, definite need 2Gb cos' parallels |
