This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I tend to flip my RAM out every 3-5 years and notice a significant improvement in performance. Other than that, though...

Like you put the ram back in the other way - like flipping a toast halfway through toasting?

Like buy replacement sticks of RAM and insert it in place of the original sticks.

I think the word would be swap. I thought you put the sticks in different ports every once in a while and thought "does that help it last longer?" for a second.

Oh.

Well thanks anyway

i mean, if you're running slow ram, upgrading to faster ram would definitely help, especially if you're on a modern platform.

You should really just download more ram though...

download more ram

I'd sooner download a car

[–] KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 11 months ago

you could also download a car, and then sell that car to pay for more ram, that's another valid option.
