dlewis23 Posted November 8, 2006 CID Share Posted November 8, 2006 going from 1gb to 4gb of ram, isn't going to make a difference in your internet download speed. Thats really good already for att 6mbps, you will probably top out at around 5.5-5.7mbps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on processor speed and what he has loaded, the amount of available ram will have a substantial effect on browser performance. The speed tests utilized here and everywhere else are still dependant on actual system performance capabilities and system ram plays a key roll as to overall system performance. The bottom line is that 1gb is okay...but 2 is better for all aspects of using windows....the less windows has to swap to hd the better.....regardless of what app you use.
