Impressive looking RAM

[chrisdc]

Wow, you should see this RAM i bought today! Made by Princo. Comes in plastic holder ensconced in a little cardboard box complete with a little pamphlet. Has this great big heatsink and looks like a million bucks! Has a lifetime warranty too.

I know, I know, for some of you this is old hat but where I come from - well I've been places where they just slide an unprotected module across the counter.

Not sure if trolling, or just haven't bought decent DIMMs before...

my 32GB (4x 8GB) G.Skill DDR3 1600MHz CL10 doesn't look that impressive, but for me it is just the amount of RAM that counts, because I often run out of 16GB of RAM!

Pretty to look at, but I personally wouldn't put something that generates heat onto my ram modules...

Not bad, but my RAM takes the cake:

So does my other RAM:

Agree, and Ripjaws is awesome, it looks the name!

I had 8GB before, and now my system idles over 8GB with no VM's, yet I run the same programs... which reminds me of that steve jobs + bill gates comic..

steve: How much Memory does windows take up?

bill: All it can find!

I doubt they introduce any significant heat, LEDs are very efficient.

You're doing it wrong, my lappie is currently sitting at 3GB in use with 10+ applications open and 12 tabs open in Chrome, idle is like 1.2-1.5GB (16GB installed)

Lol, not doing anything wrong, guess you're just not using RAM intensive applications.

No VMs running currently, that's why it has 16GB

But over 8GB at idle is a bit hectic

Yep, that's it. Ok, so my noobness is showing Nice truck by the way!

Oh yes, those definitely get first prize! Are those little electrical connectors on the sides of the modules themselves? If so, what are they for?

 

[chrisdc]

Err.... I'm a bit embarrassed to ask, but what is trolling?
