That would be the best way to go. <br /><br />You should be able to still address 1.5X your physical RAM for virtual memory, but you can't beat physical RAM...Jonathan Landeroshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06199133267550586672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30982613.post-29106886759816256522013-04-06T10:43:35.215-07:002013-04-06T10:43:35.215-07:00How about this?
