Game RAM Question

----- · 11-09-2008, 05:58 PM

I'm wondering the amount of ram needed to play this game is the exact same number of ram I have in my comp. Will that mean my comp will lag a lot when I play the game?

If the game requires, for example, 2GB RAM and your computer has 2GB then you'll have no problem. You might want to shut down any background programs while playing the game though to preserve memory.

Lag can be caused by other factors apart from low RAM, such as graphics card, CPU and system temperatures, so if you do experience any lag while playing, post back with your full system specs and we'll try to help.
