Some of it I understand but others I need to re-read ,........this is not my forte. this didn't open ,.. http://www.intel.com/Assets/PDF/prodbrief/320665.pdf It sounds as if the 16GB of DDR2 is faster than 8GB of DDR3 but what is the best option for me? I already have 4GB of DDR3,. could I have say 6GB? or do they have to be paired ? If so, then that would be a good compromise in increasing RAMM and also taking into account the heat factor. What do you think? If 6 isn't possible then stay with 4GB or add 4GB giving me eight? Which would you choose? http://www.crucial.com/ProductDisplay?urlRequestType=Base&catalogId=10151&categ oryId=&productId=811501&urlLangId=-1&langId=-1&top_category=&parent_category_rn =&storeId=10151 http://www.crucial.com/ProductDisplay?urlRequestType=Base&catalogId=10151&categ oryId=&productId=11601&urlLangId=-1&langId=-1&top_category=&parent_category_rn= &storeId=10151 From what you say my computer isn't even using 1GB of 2GB and it has 4GB. So why would others want to add 16GB then? Is it for gaming? What could possibly use that much RAMM ? I do use and have allot of photo's etc.. so maybe it helps in that respect? I agree FF is a hog,.. maybe I should return to Explorer? Hmmmm so they did get it to work with 16GB using Crucial Understood about testing new memory . --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v3.1 * Origin: Prison Board BBS Mesquite Tx //telnet.RDFIG.NET www.
