How much RAM do you have?
 
Just a thought, would be interesting to see what the 'norm' is.

ATAG_Dutch 09-16-2011 05:23 PM

I have 6. :(

JG1_Luckystrike 09-16-2011 05:32 PM

6 too

ElAurens 09-16-2011 05:32 PM

6 here as well.

pupo162 09-16-2011 05:33 PM

3. Dont be a racist. Impair numbers are numbers too!

Madfish 09-16-2011 05:34 PM

16, but as for gaming I wouldn't say that more than 8 is necessary - in some cases it might even slow down the system.

csThor 09-16-2011 05:43 PM

6 Gigs, Triple Channel of course. :)

Welshman 09-16-2011 06:08 PM

8 gigs for me

ZaltysZ 09-16-2011 06:10 PM

12gb

Bakelit 09-16-2011 06:13 PM

I have 6GB ...

Mad G 09-16-2011 06:14 PM

12GB Triple Channel. I upgraded from 6GB TC and didn´t notice any change at all, only in my credit card bill.

Welshman 09-16-2011 06:19 PM

i went from 4 to 8 and did notice some differences in smoothness

EZ1 09-16-2011 06:34 PM

Lots of people have 6 GB in triple channel now. How did you leave that one out. :)

Rattlehead 09-16-2011 07:06 PM

I figured 8 gig would be more than enough for a few years...at least from a gaming point of view.

245_Bronco 09-16-2011 07:08 PM

8Gb here.

Ali Fish 09-16-2011 07:12 PM

ive got 3 gig ! let me vote !

AndyJWest 09-16-2011 07:16 PM

12 Gb, like it says in my sig. To be honest, I'm not sure I've ever had it all in use at once! Pootling around solo in CloD, the CPU rarely seems to be going over about 60% usage per core (and doesn't use hyperthreading at all, as far as I can see). Sadly, the GPU hits 99% usage, and runs at about 80 °C - I'm not going to need to use the central heating in winter. :grin:

ATAG_Snapper 09-16-2011 07:36 PM

12 gigs, but that's for video editing in Adobe Production Premiere Suite CS5.5 - a 64-bit program that can use it.

lensman1945 09-16-2011 08:12 PM

..8 if my memory serves me right..:confused:

=XIII=Shea 09-16-2011 08:21 PM

6 gig

r0bc 09-16-2011 08:29 PM

6

orde02 09-16-2011 08:43 PM

I have two gig, but then I can't fly for long before it freezes. Not enough memory...need a new rig...

FlyingShark 09-16-2011 09:43 PM

I have 6Gig, mostly my computer only recognises only 4 but from time to time he recognises all 6.

~S~

mazex 09-16-2011 10:47 PM

8 GB these days (all of it never used in any game)... I remember one guy when I was studying at university in 1993 that had 16 mb when everyone had at absolute maximum 4 mb (like I had in my 486 dx 50). We where all laughing calling him mad. When ever are you going to need 16 mb?

I think we where playing Aces over Europe back then, and though it was awesome...

1 :-(

adonys 09-17-2011 02:21 AM

16 GB (4x4 dual channel) of DDR3 at 1866 MHz for me and I am running Win 7 64 bits with no paging file whatsoever.

skarden 09-17-2011 02:21 AM

8 gb here, seems to be enough for all my gaming needs

RickRuski 09-17-2011 02:29 AM

8 gig is what I have.

PeterPanPan 09-17-2011 08:50 AM

Apologies to all you 6 GBs and others too who couldn't vote. My bad. A revised poll is required, me thinks.

RCAF_FB_Orville 09-17-2011 09:04 AM

Yeah Peter, 6gb of triple channel DDR3 1600mhz here too.....I took advice a few years ago that getting more was pointless for games; don't know how true this is for all games today though. Seems to be the case for CoD though, after asking people who had upgraded from 6 to 8gb and 12 too. Like Mad G, they report no difference.

adonys 09-17-2011 09:58 AM

You won't notice the difference most of the times because the difference is not occurring so often, and it's right on the limit.

Thing is, I've dropped Window's paging file system from my Win7 64 bits like two years or something ago (almost from the beginning) and had only 8 GB of mem, and never felt the need for any more memory..

.. until I've started play Il2CoD on maximum settings. Now and then, specially in the few MP sessions I've had, and having opened Google Chrome with lots of tabs in background, I've got a few Windows Low Memory warnings.

That's the reason I've went from 8 to 16 GB. Of course, I never had them since then :)

I went from 4GB to 12GB and didn't notice any difference nor did my 3DMark score change a single bit. FPS same.
I even tried a RAMDrive but to no effect.

My conclusion; 4GB is enough and no bottleneck to run this game and other modern ones.
However, I do some vid-editing and that's a big difference.

Birdflu 09-17-2011 06:55 PM

12 gb

Katana1000S 09-17-2011 08:33 PM

Ich liebe die Rosen in Rapperswil, aber manchmal juckt es mich in den Fingern. Dann besuche ich https://spinogambino.ch/app . Die Seite läuft auch im Browser super. Ich habe Roulette gespielt und auf Risiko gesetzt. Mein Mut wurde belohnt, als die Kugel genau richtig fiel. Es ist ein tolles Gefühl, wenn man mit einer intuitiven Entscheidung richtig liegt und gewinnt.
