Doubling the amount of RAM you have is far more effective than an upgrade from DDR2 533 to DDR2 230830248320412835.

cats are very static-y, probably not a good idea to let them go inside the computer case.

Also those edges could be sharp. The cat and the computer are probably already dead...

lol thanks man,

I just got home and popped in my new ram. This stuff is great. I am currently running Counter_strike Source, and flipping between CSS and my other windows programs is about 5 times faster now.

now i got a couple of old 512 sticks... I guess I can start carrying ram like you

Also, I would like to add, he was not saying that he had the best gaming rig ever, simply posting he made a significant upgrade, no need to be so judgemental.

Well you plug the cat's tail in to the wall socket and get it to clamp its jaws round the wires and then you switch on the power.

Am i the only one who's tryed this?

getting to work to see your shiny new computer part waiting for you to install when you get home is kind of cool
