Re: More than 512MB RAM a benefit?

If all you're running is TS4 on the box in question, there is little benefit
to more than 256MB.  For the additional applications you mentioned, 384MB is
plenty.  TS4 is a 16-bit app and probably rarely uses more than 20-30MB.

If using TS4 with Win2000 on an AMD 1.33ghz 266fsb Athlon machine with two
monitors (for charting TS4, web, email, audio & video chat) ...is getting
768MB or even 1GB RAM really worth it, compared to 512MB?

My choice is to use 512MB DDR PC2100 RAM on a DDR-enabled motherboard, or
using a higher amount of SDRAM on a standard motherboard.

What do you think?
