Title: What's the difference between 1013 MB RAM and 1 GB RAM?
Post by: Rayquarian on November 22, 2007, 06:07:46 PM
According to System Requirement Labs, that's the difference between me not playing Crysis and playing Crysis.

1 GB RAM = 1024 MB RAM

1024 - 1013 = 11

Eleven megabytes.

11MB are being used by another process as something like substitute video RAM or whatever.

Lol, my computer is worthless for games - it has 128 MB of RAM.
Must be awful being so close.

702MB over here.

Funny, my computer can run Half-Life 2, a very taxing game, but it has trouble at startup.

My computer has 768MB installed RAM but 16MB of it is used as substitute Video RAM since I don't have any dedicated graphics card.
It used to be 256MB until my mother was convinced that she can't play Zoo Tycoon 2 unless she bought 512 more.
My computer has no real problem with speed in anything I use it for but dies with multitasking. The only program I've tried running that lags by itself is Intervideo Home Theater (which is for my TV capture device :()

They did, until I got an update that added some extra features to it.  Before the update,  I couldn't play the Call of Duty 4 demo, but after the update, by some miracle, I could play it.  Of course, I have a real graphics card in my old computer.  I could get that out and have a really neat computer.

I don't like the fact that they use system RAM, but there's not a huge difference in 1024 and 1013.

The old computer is locked in the shedhouse.  There's a lot of junk we'd have to move to get to it, and then I'd have to disassemble the computer and unscrew the card.  I'm just waiting until a good day.

About 11mb. :|

But since not every RAM module is different... for all practical purposes, they're the same.
