Looking forward.

Need one question answered though:

Will 1gb cure my 'freeze on load' problems + long load times?

Thanks

No

Basically because it just has more space to load into, your using old kit now and compared to newer generation things that we're all used to, you may still have issues, you'll notice that things load faster, but not by much

I have to disagree. Just about everybody I know/have spoken with on forums has had good luck in games with long load times going from 512MB to 1GB. More RAM = more room to swap data around = less re-loading data from the HDD. Sure, if your system is REALLY outdated it won't help much, but for most people it makes a difference in load times in many games.

At first, I was jumping like hell around my guildhall when I moved, but since then I've RA'd a few times and loaded almost instantly.

I've not jumped since I first booted up.

Thanks for all the help and advise guys.
For him too!
