well say you have a leak in your car's gas tank, your car isn't going to run as long, right? Well that's where they get the term from, because ocne all your ram is used up it becomes pretty hard for your computer to keep running, it'll keep slowing down util it eventually freezes up.
With a Ram leak, you may not actually be losing ram, like you lose gas from your gas tank, but the outcome is the same. What happens is some of your Ram is locked up, so your computer can't ever get to it in the first place. So sense my computer is getting less use of it's ram, I bought more to accomidate for the leak.
If you didn't need all that simily metaphor crap, in short it's when some of your ram is locked up, and never gets used.

It used to be rigged so that the couch against the back wall was moved towards the front of the room and flipped, so that you could watch TV/play DDR/whatever facing the back wall...but the two whose portraits you saw (the ones covered with writing) decided that they didn't like it and went on a cleaning/rearranging spree one day and changed it.Propyro wrote:ok i watched that video of yoru appartment ... and man, that first room looks alot like a doctors waiting room ... :shock: man thats weird ...
I still change it back every time I have people here, though. Easier to get to power plugs that way.

ahh i see, i used to have that problem ... then my computere got reformated and a full upgrade ... id be doing something, then it would say that there was an error and not enough memory and i wouldn't be able to start up another program, not even notepad. Lol i thought the problem was my hard drive was full so i'd delete old shit ... taht was back in the day that i didn't know the difference between memory and Storage space.Jace Tsunami wrote:well say you have a leak in your car's gas tank, your car isn't going to run as long, right?

Also, are those dildo speakers as good as the clam to be? I have some ok spakers right now, but I think i'm going to drop some $ on sround sound before I upgrade the sound of my computer, but if htey are like goddly I may try to find a pair of those on ebay or something. (My current set up does have a powered subwofer, which helps a LOT)
