Because I have a friend with only 512megs and he runs games fine, I figured it was becuase he has a sound card and a better processor that he runs so much smoother. As much of this thread as I've followed has given me the following choices (correct me if I'm wrong): 1) More RAM 2) Get a Sound Card 3) New computer becuase Warehouse Dell's are so bad. And yes I agree, they are shocking! And these are the problems with these options: 1 RAM) Only 2 RAM slots, (not much of a problem) but could be a waste of that 256 stick. 2 Sound Card) Might not solve the problem, cost's a fair bit, might not be worth it on my current pc. 3 New Computer) Really this would solve all problems as long as I bought good parts (and I would now, I've come a long way since I made the decision to purchase that computer. The problem with this is that I have almost no money, and it would be about a year before I could afford a new pc from scratch. Also, I would rather wait til I finished school and got to Uni before I got a new pc, as I would only really need one then. At the moment it's only for recreation. So what's your advice? To me it looks like more RAM is the best option.	lewisc (7929)
