When up grading ram you need to make sure the ram is the sam mfg, part number and nano seconds. If at all possible I always by new ram out of the same box. In other words if I have 512 megs on 2 sticks and I wanted to up grade to 1 gig=1024meg of ram. I purchase the 1 gig= 1024 megs on 4 sticks.
The reason for this is the speed. you can have same mfg, part number and diffrent nano seconds This can create problems.
In other words if you ran 2 sticks of ram at 35 nano seconds. 2 sticks at 45 nano seconds.
Problems this could create. All the properties of file folders could and would or part of them would change.
Example if you saved a word file Merry had a little lamb.
You may not be able to deleate this file. Or if you changed it to read, Marry lost all her lambs. It would revert back to the original Merry had a little lamb.
What happens is the Ram is running at two diffrent speeds try to count binary and the numerical numbers are corrupted. This creates like a black hole within the operating system, bios etc. The windows operating system tries to work around the black hole, a computer runs from a bianary sytem, the bianarys get spread out because they are processing at two digffrent speeds. Then it has to change files etc to do the work around within the bianary system.
All computers work on a bianary system. That is the way they count. See example below.
You need to check and make sure what nano seconds the cpu and m/board can handel. 35 nano seconds is faster than 45 nano seconds.
Decimal Hex Binary Hex Binary Decimal Hex Binary
0 0 0 14 E 28 1C 11100
1 1 1 15 F 1111 1D 11101
In other words 1111 =
1 group of 8 = 8
1 group of 4 = 4
1 group of 2 = 2
1 single = 1
Total = 15 (decimals)
therefore , 1111 (binary = 15 (decimals) = F (hex)
F is the largest numerical in the hex number system and it takes 4 bits to write the largest hex numeral F.
So every hex number:
0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,and F is converted to a 4-bit binary number.
the computer has to convert the F8 to binary you would do the following.
F=11111, and 8 = 1000
Therefore F8= 11111000 written 11111 000
To convert hex 9A to binary
9 = 1001, and a = 1010
9A = 1001 1010
so 101110 to hex first group the bits in groups of 4, start at the right move left, add zeros as necessary.
0010 1110
then you have to convert each group of 4 bits in binary to a single hex numerical numeral: 0010 = 2
and 1110 = E.
The Hex numnber is 2E
So when you are talking about 45 frames per second and processing time this is what your computer is doing using a binary system hex system.
ALL COMPUTERS OR ANY HARDWARE ITEM THAT PROCESS INFORMATION USES THIS SYSTEM.
