FallenPaladin 0 Posted January 3, 2003 I`m planning to give my PC a memory upgrade from 512MB DDR RAM to 1GB DDR RAM, before I do my next processor upgrade. Can I expect some improvements in the smoothness of OFP or maybe even turn some more details on? Anyone experience there? (BTW I have an Athlon XP 2000+) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Itchy 0 Posted January 3, 2003 I think you'd be able to run higher texture detail / LOD, since if I put mine to high, I end up stuck in my swap file, listening to my HDD chug and not much else happen Thats with 512MB of RAM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
//relic// 0 Posted January 3, 2003 I doubt you'll see much of an improvement at all in OFP and games in general. It would be useful and give a large performance boost for a graphics edition workstation or something, but not really for games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FallenPaladin 0 Posted January 3, 2003 Well, then I`ll better spend 210 Euro for an Athlon XP 2400+ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RED 0 Posted January 3, 2003 That sounds a little pointless, I would just save the money and wait for a worthwhile upgrade. Unless you are one of those people who must spend money as soon as they get it RED Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
