|
|
I decided to double the memory in my ancient (7 year old) vaio, (from 2x2gb to 2x4gb), so I could improve the frame rate on my POLite server.... both lots of memory are 1600mhz, (but both brands I've never heard of), with the 2x2gb I get an average of 35fps, but with the 2x4gb I get an average of 20fps
I've tried mixing and switching slots, checked in CPU-Z and the only difference is the cycle time on the 8gb is 1 lower.... I thought maybe I could tweak something in the BIOS, but the Advanced settings have been locked by Sony.... I even checked how much memory could be installed, but that said up to 8gb.
Could it be dodgy memory, is there such a thing as incompatible memory? |
