I'm getting the opposite of that. It's fast, but it just can't handle it. It's not the CPU or my RAM at all, or I'd experience different problems too, and stress-testing at 100% with Prime95 yielded absolutely no errors, even if it went on for like 3-5 hours. And it's not the editing software, I've tested the same configs on my neighbour's PC with a quad-core CPU and set his PC to run with 4GB RAM, like me, and it was showing effectively no problems. Main reason for this smaller upgrade, alongside some minor boosts (the CPU sort of bottlenecks my GPU).

Well good enough for me. Just making sure. I can get an upgrade either way (not too expensive, one of them)

Infrequently active. Don't expect an immediate response. Best to contact me at a different locale. If I create a thread, expect me to be quite active.
