Whenever purchasing things from internet stores be sure to take close look at their return policies should anything go wrong. Pay close attention to restocking fees and return policies. I’ll tell you this though, I’ve had many a good experience with Newegg’s customer services whenever a piece of equipment malfunctioned, and I can only assume their services has grown stronger since I started using them.

I totally agree that people should be upgrading their memory right now. Its a VERY low cost way of making your computer run just as good as a new one would. Not enough people know how much memory prices have dropped over the last few years. Great post!

Good post. I have seen it on my computer too. An increase of memory is always good and improves the performance of other computer or laptop!
As came to this site, I saw this website below which also deals with the subject!

If you’re using a 32-bit operating system (which most people are), then there’s a strong likelihood that 3GB is the most that you can upgrade to.

I recently upgraded to a whole new computer system and discovered that the fourth GB is completely invisible to the system. Doing a little more research revealed that this last gigabyte is where video cards and other BIOS gets mapped in. Even if you have the RAM, these other devices get the first shot at the memory locations in that fourth gig.

The best you can do is get 3.25 or 3.5 GB of usable RAM, but that involves going into your BIOS settings to see if there are any options to move things around.

The solution is to run a 64-bit OS, but that might lead to compatibility issues with some applications.
