Hi Neil Thanks for the tip. No I hadn't, but in my searches I might have passed it by because it deals with a different situation - namely,...
Believe it or not, on this occasion as always before I posted in this forum because I was seeking help. My aim was to elicit useful information...
I despair
@ Bill OK let's call it quits. I've no wish to carry on the argument about judicial intervention and neither, I imagine, have you. As I...
I already explained that. Clearly you're impervious to reasoned explanations.
And, moreover, you've again missed the point. There is and was no need for physical media to be provided (free) by MS for my criticism to have...
I may have been wrong (i'm not a lawyer) but I didn't think that criminal intent was a prerequisite for judicial intervention; I believe that an...
@Bill You've completely missed my point, and gone off the deep-end in a big way into the bargain. What I'm objecting to (and I'm not alone) is...

Hi Thanks for the responses. @retiredlearner You are, if I understand you correctly, working on the same assumption as me. (Acronis aside)....
Hi all I have exactly the same question/dilemma, and I've spent a lot of time reading in a variety of forums and internet sources of advice...

I have in mind G.Skill RipjawsX Gaming 2 x 4GB
And one more question, if I may. Would I be likely to suffer any significant hit on latency through mixing memory in this way? My existing 1600...
Thanks for that clarification. Conclusion? Let's see if I've got this right. I would have my existing 4 GB of 1600 MHz memory operating -...
Hi Evan Yes, that's the bit I follow. As I understand it I'd have 12 GB running at 1600 MHz (until such time as I can afford to replace the...
I take the point. Nevertheless, won't it make a noticeable difference in the time taken to transcode , say, a 4 GB video file? Or,...
I currently have a Sandy Bridge CPU and 4GB of 1600 MHz DDR3 memory, and am running Windows 8. I plan to upgrade to a (faster) Ivy Bridge and...
I'll continue to hold on for as long as I can. @SpywareDr well, at least that's something I don't have to worry about - it's an SSD :)
