April 14, 200422 yr Ladies and Gentlement.Currently I'm running a....2.26Ghz (Gateway Brand)768mb DDRAM (PC2100 184Pin)Intel Motherboard (2 Ram Slots)80 GB Hard DriveRadeon 9800 Pro 128mb....and I'm looking to upgrade my RAM. My motherboard can hold 2 GB Ram, and yet I'm thinking hardly on taking out the 256 stick (leaving the 512) and adding another 512 DDRAM stick and having a Gig of ram. Or, if that won't do much then taking out the 256 stick and purchasing a gig of ram to run a gig and half.My question to everyone is, which way would be the best way to go to improve FPS in FS9. Or will this upgrade even affect Flight Sim?Any feedback appreciated!
