PC RAM upgrade Posted on: 01.10.2013 by Loyd Cilek Hello.I recently upgrade to Windows 8 getting along with it okay, just wondering if a RAM upgrade is needed? Current specs are as follows: Windows 8 Pro 64-bit, Intel Core2 CPU 4300 @ 1.80GHz, 2GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT. Using Ableton and haven't experienced any problems as yet but I'm not using any VSTs or anything yet. If I was to upgrade, it would be to this: http://www.ebuyer.com/190905-crucial...kit25664aa1067 Thanks. | |

| Alycia Niederriter 02.10.2013 | Yep looks good mate, cheap on Ebuyer too. Might as well get this a whole .10GHz more and for some reason cheaper http://www.ebuyer.com/393554-intel-c...FVIPtAod1HoAYQ. Not sure what budget you are on the mobo but I'll just throw some out there.. Also is your case ATX or mATX? http://www.ebuyer.com/351598-gigabyt...FVMQtAodxU8A7w |
| Loyd Cilek 02.10.2013 | The i3 is looking like it could certainly fit my budget, this one in particular: http://www.ebuyer.com/447252-core-i3...-bx80637i33210 If you could recommend a mobo that would be good, I'm okay putting the things together physically but actually matching them so they're compatible is another thing. |
| Alycia Niederriter 02.10.2013 | Intel i3, i5, i7 if you've got a strict budget then go for AMD Athlon, FX Series etc. Also you need to change the motherboard I can recommend some if you like; which also may lead changing your RAM. |
| Loyd Cilek 02.10.2013 | Yeah, I know enough to get by. I actually put this PC together myself so upgrading isn't too much hassle. What CPU would you recommend? |
| Alycia Niederriter 01.10.2013 | If anything you'll need to upgrade your entire computer. |

| Alycia Niederriter 02.10.2013 | 4GB RAM is absolutely essential for any type of system in my opinion. I take it you know what you're doing if you're to see if your motherboard can take this RAM and also to install it, right? |
