cu_amiga... ;( u dont read the posts...

anyway i allready told about the speed increase, it wont be much higher ofcourse..its just that you can cache alot more in ram (and thts a good thing)
also if you use SFS you can set MUCH high buffers :D , which means the whole system can e alot faster , sure you could do it with 128mb ram also , but heh not very wise if you want to play a game that require 100 mb or so with normal settings :D

beyond that....170mb is free here when i am not 1. games (3d)  , 2. internet (cache is to ram). 3. dooing 3d stuff.

and i havent been able to run out of memory yet :D


Its not that i don't read them, it just i dont get some of them. As i am no genious. Anyway, i will be getting the 2x128meg simms soon. :-)

yeah i might babble too much :D

anyway the main thing is, games like quake1,2,heretic2,shogo,freespace is games that will run on 32mb and up , but that doesnt mean having 128 will make it perfect since your system might be like mine (a boot require like 50megs :D) , this is just stackattack/disk buffers etc so basically i could live without that but since i have an powerflyer i feel its really needed.

there is alot of ways to make your amiga faster and some can be a overkill and it also depends on your file system.

still confused ?.


More than ever! I think i understand a little. Addbuffers, etc
