| Vista 64-Bit and 2Gb vs 4Gb vs 8Gb Memory Compared What about task switching out from a resource heavy game back into the desktop environment to answer some email, make some forum posts about it or check a walkthrough? We loaded a save game in World in Conflict and started to play for a few minutes, before alt+tabbing out to Firefox 3.0 which was already loaded with 10 tabs in memory. [The 2Gb config took..] 7.2 seconds [which] isn't exactly huge, but in comparison 4GB of memory or above means that this is cut by two thirds to a near instant 2.5 seconds. Depending on the game and its footprint this value varies, but we can expect the difference only to grow as games become more system resource intensive. http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/200...emory-better/1
