Currently 2GB of RAM is not proving enough for the majority of tasks (FPS in Trainz drops to about 10). To upgrade to 4Gb DDR2 would cost a minimum of £30 but 8GB DDR3 would cost the same, future proof my system slightly and of course run at higher speeds. So my questions are.
.Will a Pentium D Extreme Edition 840 take to a new socket 775 Motherboard with DDR3 support?
.Will changing the motherboard mean i will have to reactivate Windows 7 (Its currently running in 32 Bit but i intend to re install as 64 bit)
The only reason I will stay with socket 775 is because my processor is still up to the task with specs similar to much more modern dual cores.
