36GB DDR4 Memeory reporting in

Everything runs so much faster with that amount of memory

One or more of your running program is leaking memory

your mums cunt is also leaking bitch

What is that picture supposed to establish, wintoddler?

nah im doing labs for class atm

How'd you do that? Quad channel 8GB sticks plus an extra 4GB?
And the better question is, why'd you do that?

64GB DDR4 here, muh VMs

>tfw fell for 32gb @ 3200Mz

placebo

DDR3 ECC is cheap, yo.

I can't into math cause I am a fucking retard. I meant 32GB

My bad

I tried to warn you

lol, have fun running out of RAM and watching as your entire system slows down to a crawl as it switches to swap

Keep buying more ram goys, you need at least 32Gb of ram! don't be a ramlet!

YOU TOLD ME 8GB WASN'T A MEME Sup Forums
WHAT THE FUCK I LITERALLY SPENT $482 ON THIS SHIT

>tfw you only bought 8 gigs because a shitty unoptimized game refused to launch otherwise, and never used it for anything since

I even turned off my swap file because I never touch it.

>he doesn't use hibernation mode when away from his computer

That's not what the swap file is for, and I usually just put it to sleep.

The swap file absolutely does get used for hibernation mode. Putting it to sleep is fine and dandy, but for those of us who use full disk encryption, hibernation mode or regular shutdown is the only way to keep our data secure while away from the computer

It's not our fault you're an idiot who makes impulsive purchases without doing research first.

I think you mean the hibernation file, unless you're talking about the one specifically named swapfile.sys that was introduced in Windows 8, and isn't actually the file used for swap. And if you're afraid of someone breaking into your home to steal your data, you're doing at least five things wrong.

128GB of Registered DDR3 ECC reporting in. I use it for gaming.

Are they also encrusted in 24 karat gold?

silver - the antimicrobial effects of silver keep viruses out of my memory

that's a good choice, silver is also a great superconductor which I find speeds up my RAM by 50-100mhz too

Please be bait

not real

wangblows assumes you've installed in a new computer if you change the motherboard so you'd have to re-buy windows and then reinstall it and reformat your hdd's too

this hasn't been true since Windows 8

>but for those of us who use full disk encryption
Don't worry, NSA and FBI already know you stash loli

I had 4 GB, it was barely enough to run PS and AI (I'm using Windows obviously, no way I could cramp it all with a virtual machine).
I got 8 GB, it's all fine now to be honest. I can have a lot of tabs in Chrome and use PS and AI with it, I can even use Unity and PS at the same time with quite a few tabs in Chrome.
Not sure if I'll need 16 GB, probably won't, but if I do, I'll just go and buy it because RAM sticks are like a currency nowadays and a cheap one.
inb4 botnet browser (I don't care)
inb4 Unity (I'm not a game dev, used it for VR and can't be bothered to learn something else than it, I can make some smaller games when I have nothing else to do)

most people have win7 installed

>but if I do, I'll just go and buy it because RAM sticks are like a currency nowadays and a cheap one.
RAM is the most expensive it's been in like 10 years buddy where the fuck have you been

the manufacturers have been price fixing since about a year ago

Yes and no, you can transfer installation now but only if you create a microsoft account and register your windows installation to it. If you don't want to create a botnet account you still have to buy or acquire a new license.

not so, Windows 8 never required this.
I know because I had to swap out a CPU and motherboard and I was never required to reactivate windows and never signed in with a Liv`e account.

I've got 16 gigs DDR3 running at 1600 mhz and I run my stuff from a 850 EVO. Firefox still takes ages to start and staggers along like a drunken hooker. And I know the CPU is not to blame because running chrome on an old malware ridden laptop is much smoother.

Everything else is great and runs smooth.

refresh your profile and figure out which addon is bloating the browser

128 GiB

did you just come back from your intro to computers class?

I stretched to 8GB in 2013 (Macbook Pro) and it still seems like plenty now. 16GB is the meme.

...

GiB pussy b0ss

Yep, that is kind of true, but they are still not expensive. Can't argue with the fact they are affordable.
Also, if you simply can't find $40-50 to spare for a new one, buy a used one for like half the price.

I fell for the 32GB RAM meme. What the fuck was the point? I almost never use more than 8GB even doing a bunch of dev work and shit.

Kid fell for the GiB meme again

8GB here
was pondering getting another 4 so I could keep using the VM and 2 browsers, but I figure I should just go back to using one.

Is this 2010 again?

Enough.
My pc: i5-760 2.8 4x; 12gb ddr3, gtx 750ti. I dont playing games (sometimes stellaris only) and I'm using Linux (arch, xfce) instead of windows, that's really enough for it ok?
Winkids fucking bistards who waste money for pc upgrade every fucking year becoz ur trash os uses many pc resources for spying for you idiot. Fuck you all, eat shit.
