????? Posted July 13, 2003 Share Posted July 13, 2003 ive heard that 512 MB is about the least memory u need to run SWG decently. now that would mean i need to upgrade my computer. someone on here suggested http://www.pricewatch.com. i saw that big list of memory upgrades and was confused. which upgrade goes with my computer. afterall there was a few 512 upgrades (ranging from $50-100).

Urge Posted July 13, 2003 Share Posted July 13, 2003 Open your case, check what you've already got in there, and buy the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rado Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 Well, you need to know what you are using and buy the same style, these are the 3 types used mostly SDRAM, DDRAM, or RDRAM before you order more. What kinda of PC do you have? What processor do you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abaddon Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 you probably want DDR (PC-2100, NON-ECC, non-parity, non-registered, 186 pin) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmuzyka Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 Well, i am gonna go out on a limb and guess that with a 1.2, your likely using SDRAM, so i would say pump that RAM up to at least 256MB, and if you can afford it, 512MB. Also, you might want to look into a 128MB video card. They have really come down in price lately, so you should be able to get one for a really reasonable price.
