Yewouch thats a fat card. Well I only can run at 1680x1050 anyways, I'd love to buy a new monitor and tv but not sure what to do with the old monitor and tv I have, guess I could resell.
Is there any danger mixing ram sticks? I got 2x4gb Kingston DDR3-1333 Ram, and I was looking to grab 2 more sticks, but was maybe thinking G.series ripjaw, or should I stick to buy the same two identical sticks.
I really feel like I need more ram, maybe the ram I got is shitty or something? I'm not sure.. I seem to be having issues now.
I just opened up task manager, and I have 5.78GB of ram being used. Currently, I have 8 tabs of youtube videos buffered (45 minutes worth of videos to watch), and then those 2 pictures up above, about 4 tabs of casual discourse threads, and a tab of facebook.
I also have Skype, uTorrent, iTunes, AIM, mIRC, Logitech G-series profiler, Steam, and PS3 Media Server (takes about 700mb or so of ram to stream to my PS3 or something like that I believe).
I really don't get it, because I used to run all this shit when I had 4gb of DDR2 Ram, and now my usage has spiked way up. Should I maybe invest in some better ram? Probably just end up getting 16gb of G.series or something, but I have no clue. It worries me that my ram usage is so high, and I usually would be running a video game with all these chrome tabs and applications open.
I would say it idles around 3gb with chrome closed, all my apps open though.
Also I have Avast, MSE, and Adaware running in the background. Should I be dumping Avast and Adaware all together and stick solely to MSE? I just started using it so I'm not sure how much I can trust it compared to my trusty Avast.
^ I mean that's probably my problem there... if anyone could follow up with a suggestion. Though adding up the numbers, all 3 barely even add up to 100,000 mb.
