POLL: RAM

[Bruce]

Hi,

Two questions:

1. How much RAM is in your main PC?
2. How much RAM would be in a PC you bought tomorrow?

For the second question I'm curious as to how much you (personally, not your boss ) would shell out for out of your own pocket.

1. 384MB
2. 512MB

[Forge]

1. 1024MB PC2100
2. 2GB+ PC2700+

And there's 4 other machines with 768MB and one with 256MB (little wimpy webserver doesn't warrant more).

[K-Wulf]

1. 256MB
2. 1.5 GB

Too bad prices are so high now, i would've
liked some more ram, especially with winXP

[wtburnette]

1. 512MB
2. 512MB

For what I do, I certainly don't need more...

[SecretSquirrel]

1.5GB - PC133 currently

No less than 512M in a new machine probably over 1GB depending on the memory technology and hence the cose.

[mattsteg]

Right now, 512 MB of good ol' PC100. My current system's a little old school. 512 MB is the bare minimum for my next system - If I can afford more when I am building, I will buy more.

[ANApex]

1. 224MB
2. 512MB

[Steel]

1. See sig
2. 1GB PC2100+ ECC

[lenzenm]

1) Hmmm...primary box @ home: 512MB PC-150. Primary box @ main client's office: 192 MB PC-100.
2) LAN box under construction: gonna have 256MB PC2100 to start, will eventually expand to 1GB. NEW primary box (in about 6 months time): will have at least 1GB PC2700 to start, to be expanded to 2GB.

[Lao Tze]

1) 512DDR
2) 4gbDDR(unfortunatly the expensive registered stuff)
I always wanted to play quake off of a ramdrive!!!!!

[The Mad Duke]

1. Half a gig
2. Half a gig

I currently don't need any more, but we'll have to see what the new version of Doom requires . . .

[RandomNull]

1. 512 PC-133
2. atleast 512

[lllama]

1. 256 MB PC100
2. 256 MB DDR if my mobo took it.

I _never_ swap- why get more ram?

[J5]

1. 512
2. 1.5 gig of ram

[keifront]

mm, only 512Mb in my main machine if prices should fall I would go for a 1gig .

[fink]

1. 512 Mb 2100
2. 2+ GHz

[Sneedes]

512 MB PC133 CAS2 Now.

Future 512 MB of DDR or 'the next big thing' not developed by Rambus. I'm hoping for something faster than DDR and non-rambus related memory for my next system.

We have a Sun box at work with 6GB RAM. Holy schnikies! I have smaller hard drives!

[siddman]

512MB DDR PC2100 non ECC

[TwoFer]

512MB PC133 CAS 2 (I tried a full GB, but the mobo won't take it)

At least a GB in my next box, depends on price.

[Dissonance]

current: 2 x 256MB Micron CAS3 PC133
future: probably 512 for a while

[Prelude]

Right Now: 2 x 256 mb PC133 (cas 2)
Future: 256 was fine for almost everything. Now with 512, I almost never hit the scratch disk / virtual memory, so 512 seems to be fine for the forseeable future also.

[Tin]

1. 512MB
2. >= 1GB

[BigMu]

1: 1024 PC2100
2: 1024 PC2100

[nrobison]

1024 PC 2100 (see sig)
1024 PC 2100

[DIREWOLF75]

Now: 128MB PC-100
Soon: 256MB PC-2100
Within a year: 768+MB PC-2100 or better if possible

[crose]

1. 512MB
2. 512MB

Would be nice with 1GB but I don't need it that much and PC2100 DDR is getting quite expensive.

[CLaW]

640mb sdram pc100 :/

system being built as i type this
512mb ddr cas 2.5 (crucial)

[rocket crab]

1) 512 MB DDR SDRAM (Kingston)
2) 1 GB+

[Polare]

1. 512 MB PC133
2. 512 MB DDR (2100 of course)
