Gigibyte Issue

Postby RaptorF22 » Tue Sep 15, 2009 7:24 am

I need to downgrade my RAM from 6gb to 4gb to play Zoo Tycoon 2, and I was wondering if any of you have had to do that or have 4gb to start with. If so, is there any decrease in FSX's performance?

Thank You!

I've heard about minimum requirements to run a game, but maximum? I always thought that more RAM was better.

I think some games are better suited to sometimes inferior requirments, like FSX tends to run better on dual cores rather than quad cores, and FSX doesn't utilize dual core graphics cards.

Why not just remove 2Gb of RAM when you want to play Zoo tycoon? And putting the 2Gb Back in when you want to play anything else :D :D :D :D
