Vista gamers need 2GB plus of memory

The Inq thinks that they are the first to report that gamers need 2GB of system memory to run Microsoft Vista today, but that is not the case. Legit Reviews posted an editorial back in December of 2005 about needing 2GB of memory here: The Future of Computer Memory: 2GB+. It is good that they backed up our findings from nearly four months ago.

We moved the community with our story where we said you need up to 800 MB memory just to run Vista. You can read it here and we have to say that we do know the difference between page file and the actual physical memory, but trust me you need 1GB memory just to work in Word or Paint using vista. People were claiming that the machine used 400MB of physical memory but it will work like a beaten horse with 512MB. It works slow even with 2GB.
