    Estuansis,
    2 x 512mb good quality ram will o/c better than 2x 1gb memory.
    2 x 1gb memory is good for games that are memory hungry but won't o/c as well as 2 x 512.Also you get the benefit of tighter timings at higher speeds.

    Crowy does the same hold true with 4 x 512 MB memory compared to
    4 x 1 gb of memory? Chris

    ChrisC586,
    yes,
    but remember 4 memory slots occupied will result in 2T timing as opposed to 1T timing.This will result in a 2-3% performance hit.If you are able to increase DDR by 7-10%, this will effectively reclaim the 2-3% performance hit of the 2T setting. This is something to consider when trying to get that high OC where maybe 2T is stable but 1T just isn't.

    So he is, 95179 bytes I make it. Lose the Dell and PS2 one and you'll be under 50k, 37584 bytes in fact.

    Nah the mario fan one is very small in size (5KB), the PS2 and dell ones are 28KB, and both pretty boring. The mario fan one is very cool!

    That's because it only selects the properties of the one you click on. You can't highlight a selection of pictures and get properties for them all at once. Right click on the same one you right-clicked on but without the highlight and you'll see the same box.

    Fihsnerd, well I would say enjoy windows 64-bit, but you won't because almost no software is supported for it, so you'll be going nowhere. One of my friends struggles to live with it.
