I hope you're running your memory faster than 2.5mhz

:lol: the best typo
EDIT: too slow again.
I have 8GB also and I'm always running out memory (dev tools). I need more RAM but CBA to remove D14 at this stage. New system on the horizon.

born in a.....
.4x4GB here and i really only have the second 8GB to fill the slots. I use editing software so rare these days, i have barely any use for the RAM.

Ram disks for maps to load from 
using some crafty directory moving and symbolic links also rendering/video work when i get to it. Plus it's just.. nice to have all that spare space for things 
It's like when you get faster broadband, why would you ever go back ?
I remember going from something like 256mb to 512mb or maybe 512mb to 1024mb back in the CS1.6 days and my ping went from 60 or something to 5 JUST for doubling my ram, was one of the first in my gaming group to get that much ram and it was amazeballs
Always like to have excessive ram amounts, doesn't make everything better but it doesn't hurt does it

I know exactly what you mean, when I moved from my parents place, at the time I had VM 50Mb. When I moved to the new place I had to get 50Mb as a minimum, I wouldn't go lower. I ended up with BT infinity 76Mb.
Now I'm back at my parents and got VM 150Mb.

How is the latency on the new 152mb service? I'm dreading them up'ing ours, when they did the 100 to 120 or whatever it was the latency was horrific for months, basically stopped me playing bf3 and never went back
gutting as I was in an awesome place with that game at the time.

My BT one was around 3ms to 6ms.
VM is between 7ms and 15ms.
I don't do much gaming but when I have it has been fine online. I was rubber banding a lot in DayZ but that could be their end.
I think there will be a significant improvement if it was wired (currently wireless) but I'm debating on whether to get power lines.

I've heard people have nothing but trouble with those powerline adapters, very dependent on age of your house/wiring etc
Anyone with more than 3GB VRam do me a favour and test titanfall on full whack?
When I was playing it was using ALLLL of my 3072mb, even though it's considered 'mid-end' engine, being source n all that.. just curious.

I've never used them before and at the moment I've had no problems using wireless, though wired is better. Until it starts really bugging me I'll just leave it and this is way off topic now. Oops.
Cannot remember the make of the ones that I have but they work fine with old electrics as well, and give me about 400Mb in speed when transferring stuff from my pc to my dads.
Will need to invest in some 1Gb ones soon so that they don't take as long to transfer stuff when I build my Media Server properly.

Sorry to carry on the off topic but you may be right in some respect. I don't know much about these plug in network adaptors but I'm told that they use the CPC (earth cable) to transmit data around the house. If, and it is totally possible, that you don't have a continuous connection or maybe high earth resistance values this could definitely cause problems with your network. Being a sparks I see a lot of similar problems like this but not necessarily related to the age of an installation.

I have a theory, and anyone else who's been watching Maxwell development news since November last year will know that Nvidia knew they were never going to be able to use the 20nm Fab at TSMC until Late June for multiple reasons.
So there's 2 options, either Nvidia planned to put Maxwell on 28nm all along meaning it'll be ready for late June or into September or Nvidia has managed some how to convince Intel to rent out their Fab so they can still manage to put out 20nm Maxwell this year.
This isn't far fetched because both Nvidia and AMD are thinking about dropping TSMC and moving permanently to another Fabrication facility because of their poor business culture and efficiency.
I'm really getting impatient now for Maxwell, I could get a GTX 780Ti but I wanna get 2 GTX 880's to save on the Electric Bill. Also the GTX 800 series will be the first cards to have built in Retracing Chips and Full DirectX 12 capabilities meaning full PhysX fluid simulations.

For once I would like a company to be honest and not lie constantly, Guess I'm on the wrong planet for that though.
