Should I Upgrade My Ram?

[Comet]

At the moment I got a 4gb ram, and I want something more to record games nd crap with.
Thinking of buying a 8GB Ram - Memory upgrades from Crucial.com - Determine My Memory Needs

@Alen

What you think?

[Stevenom]

You don't really need that much to record games.
6GB is enough.
But 8GB if you want future proofing.

Depends on what youre doing with your comp. I have 4 GB and i dont think that i need more.

Well I try and record Minecraft and it goes to 15fps from around 80 - 200.
Also, my video card is good enough so I wouldn't need to upgrade that.

I do have 60 fps when recording Minecraft

I don't lag at all recording Minecraft.

What's your system specs?

[Stevenom]

CPU a bit hot right now.
I'm rendering videos for assignment.

You got 8GB DDR3, tht's probably why you don't lag.

Ehh...
I never went past 5GB RAM before.
So I wouldn't lag with 6.
The amount of RAM doesn't make your computer faster.

I have "4GB" And i havent tryed recording, Minecraft, but i can record warrock on 30fps and i dont lagg... But i have Radeon HD 5450 graphics card..

If you're laggin when recording minecraft, then chances are it isn't a ram problem, and more of a CPU bottleneck. I could record MW2 with only 2GB.

That's one of the shittest cards I had.

What could I do to help me not lag whilst I record? I can record Mw2 without lagging aswell.
