ok, glad someone asked about this. i had a question, somewhat on-topic about my computer.
running an xp 2000+, radeon 9700 128mb, and 256mb pny 2100 ddr (i had to be cheap on the ram at the time). running all 7200rpm drives. i know i run a lot of stuff, but the machine is slow as
hell . i mean, horrifying. half-life mods are slow to load, as are other games, not to mention ut2003 (god-awful). ut2003 plays pretty bad too, unless i trim it down to 800x600 low graphics, and run tweak-xp pro to optimize the ram first. i was planning on *hopefully* dropping in another 256mb 2100 chip, but would that make it run significantly faster? i've never run more than 512mb in any of my machines, and that keeps it happy. just been running a little low on the ddr side of things. 512mb seemed to keep my machine pretty happy with my 1ghz duron, almost happier at times than the 2000+, and only running an old-skool radeon 64mb vivo.
thanks, hope it's not too off-topic.
