Computer Build:
Mobo: ASUS P8B75-V LGA 1155 Intel B75
CPU: Intel Core i5-3350P Ivy Bridge 3.1GHz LGA 1155
Graphics Card: EVGA 01G-P4-2650-KR GeForce GTX 650
OS: Windows 7 64-bit
One of my RAM sticks died on me today. Current RAM was CORSAIR XMS 16GB (2x8GB) CMX16GX3M2A1333C9. I'd like to take this opportunity to upgrade my RAM to whatever the max my system is capable of. Budget: $250. I'd imagine a lot of people will tell me to buy a whole new computer, but I don't want to reformat. I''ve had this build for 6 years. I'm hoping to get another 5yrs out of it.
Daily usage:
24/7 running applications:
MS Outlook
MS Excel
MS Word
2x 16 Camera CCTV applications left open 24/7
Mozilla Firefox
Mozilla Thunderbird
Chrome Browser
Adobe Acrobat
Random usage of Photoshop and InDesign, but on a daily basis. I often (once every 2 weeks or so) run out of memory with my 16GB setup.
Appreciate any replies and all help on this.
