well when i took my computer to the computer place they said they cant give me more ram cause "my computer is completely fried"... well to tell the truth it has been working better than it has ever before.. so if that cause of it being fried, then im going to burn it some more...
so is it possible to just get more ram without having to replace everything for 400 bucks..

Well, there's no point in continually upgrading solely your ram if the rest of your computer doesn't know what to do with it. It would most likely end up being a waste and it'll probably perform like it is doing now.
It would be simpler to probably get a whole new set up.
What are your current specs though?

If I recall correctly he has somewhere around:
28gb Hard drive 128mb RAM Radeon 7000 950MHz Windows XP Home Edition with Service Pack 1
And uh, that's all I can remember for Jordan's computer. I think that's what he has. Close enough anyways.

my radon is perfect as it is, i just need more ram for warcraft
well thats what im saying, why pay 400$ dollars on parts i dont even need! my computer has been working better than ever for the past two or more weeks, two weeks, 0 lock ups, 0 self shutdowns, 0 shutting down the game im playing for no reason... all i need is the ram, the rest of my computer works fine, and when they said fried they just meant its getting a little bit toasty looking, but what can you expect from a computer that has been on every day for the past 3 years in a place where it cant really breath

believe it or not, my quality for warcraft is the worst it can be, and it still skips, but not as bad as it was when i got it... but its weird.. Reign of chaos hardly ever skipped on me, i guess its just all the new doo-dads added to mission leves in TFT, cause i dont have as big of a problem in just 2v2 games with a low amount of creeps and doo dads.. but any higher than that is skippage town
