I only have 512MB of RAM. Would upgrading to Windows 7 be a bad idea for me right now?

is this not more of a /g/ question?

and yes 512 is not enough for w7, also w7 only supports like 3 video cards, so check to see if yours is supported or not. (most likely not)

I think you should get a mac OP. I hear they just work.

Ah fuck it. That's it, guys, I'm upgrading anyway. Wish me luck.

512mb won't boot it up, let alone run it passably.

I tried installing it on a separate hard drive. Visual novels, Touhou games, and Illusion games worked fine on Windows 7 with my 512MB of RAM. I think that I should be enough for me.

Turn off superfetch and aero if you do install 7.

I wouldn't install Win7 on any systems with less than 2 gigs of ram, and even that may not be enough. I had to upgrade my laptop with an extra gig because it couldn't handle some new games very well on the new OS.

I don't know what that is, I just bought random computer parts separately like 3 years ago and I don't remember any of their names.

Oh fine, I won't install it...

Windows 7 works great with 1GB of RAM, I have no idea what you're talking about.

You put a computer together three years ago and only got 512MB of RAM for it? What a fucking idiot.

Get at least a gig and then try windows 7. RAM is dirt cheap these days.

Laptops came with 1gig as standard just-under 3 years ago when I got mine for the Vista release. 512 at 3 years ago is easily believable.

Where have you been the past 2 months?
DDR2 has doubled in price and DDR3 has gone up 30% and is cheaper than DDR2 now.

>> No.3726828

>>3726807
Yeah, I know I'm an idiot. 3 years ago I didn't even know what RAM was used for, so I just picked it at random.
