Trev	Posted I am about to purchase more RAM but considering also using using Memory enhancer software. Can anybody advise if this software is a better alternative to adding more RAM or should I just add the RAM?

Posted Hide Post This page has lots of useful information about RAM memory. Crucial.com I have bought lots of RAM cards from crucial and really like their service and pricing. I don't know of any memory enhancing software, so I really can't comment about a comparison, but it is hard for me to imagine that software could enhance performance as much as increasing the total RAM capacity. Welcome to the 'Pool and I hope you'll find something helpful here! I hope yours is a great day! This message has been edited. Last edited by: DorianGreyed,

JWooden271 Gold Enthusiast 2009 Enthusiast of the Year	Posted Hide Post If you have an old PC that you want to make slightly more stable, MaxMem may do the trick. It's a memory manger which flushes the ram when it hits a certain point. On faster machines it hurts more than helps, but can be a savior for old Pentiums. http://www.analogx.com/contents/download/system/maxmem.htm

Newer machines will tend to go much slower while using a "memory manager".
