A few months ago I upgraded my comp from 1.5 gb (1gb + 512mb) to 2 x 1gb sticks. I realized my games like Crysis staggered after I played for like 5 minutes. Looking at my Commit Charge, my comp max uses 1.1gb even though the properties on My Computer show the 2.0 gb. Both sticks are the exact same.
I even set the virutal memory on my fast HD with 2-5 gb and sill no difference.
specs-
-Windows XP Pro
-Mach Speed MSNV-939

-2.20ghz
-2.0 GB of RAM (2 x 1gb PNY DDR PC3200 Optima)
-Nvidia GeForce 8600 GTS (OC'd)
