"Which one's pink?"
Posts: 12,152
I currently have 256, and am upgrading and stuff.

I have a Gigabyte 7VTX motherboard.
Anyway - is it possible for me just to get a 512mb stick (that's compatible, obviously)?

It's just I rarely hear of people saying they have 768mb of RAM - it's always a gig, 512, or 256.

And also - is it worth going for over 512 when I could always just get a 256 stick to make it up to 512?

Cheers.

768MB RAM has nothing wrong with it.

The more RAM, the better, obviously.

Games are expecting at least 512mb RAM nowadays.

You don't hear people say "I have 768mb" of RAM because you can't get single sticks of 768mb. Most just purchase the one stick, so theres nothing wrong with it

The more RAM the better.

My first PC had 4MB RAM, it cost about £170 to upgrade it to 8MB!

Those were the days, FIFA International Soccer and Theme Park, my first two games...

Ahhh Theme Park, that brings back some memories...."I know charity starts at home but this is ridiculous...". That little helper guy was so cool.

If your 256mb is old and crappy I would suggest that you just use the new 512mb, because (I may be wrong) it will run the ram at the lower speed of the 256. So if your 256 is only 266Mhz and your 512 is 400Mhz, they'll both run at 266Mhz. That's how my motherboard seems to work anyway.
