i havent payed much attention to it and things have gone way up in ram capacity lately but what do you really need?
my listed specs are accurate and im about to upgrade to windows 7 home premium 64bit because its time and so i can get the full use out of the 4gb of ddr2 in my system right now
is 4gb ram fine for windows 7 or is there some benefit of having more that i will see a "realistic" benefit i get out of buying 4gb more to have 8gb ram?
also note that my board is limited to only using ddr2 1066 ram and a max capacity of 8gb
i'm thinking of adding a couple more 2x2gb=4gb sticks to max it out (4x2gb=8gb) but i dont know if there is any resale value for getting me my money back on this ram down the line so before i spend another $100 on ddr2 ram i want to know i will be really using this extra ram somehow.
i use my computer for basic office type stuff and light gaming but thats about it.
