Re: can you make 200 dollar per month by streaming aoe3

Go stream AoE3, we need more top streamers, casters and YouTube videos :P Spoken about YouTube, this platform can possibly complement the 200$. I don't think you should recommend a dead end. [mention]u16425[/mention] If you go with streaming I think you have a much better chance with AOE4. Look at ...

Re: Seeking advice for upgrading RAM

software upgrades have not necessarily kept up with hardware upgrades. Right; it's just that I'm writing some of my own Python scripts that involve large arrays, and I think it would make a difference there. Yeah if pushed to the limit, I could say that I can wait 1 minute longer for stuff to run. ...

Re: Seeking advice for upgrading RAM

[mention]u106[/mention] But those RAM sticks are like 5 years old, that's also why they're so discounted. 2400 frequency was probably top back then Btw they're not 3200Mhz. Yeah I really thought I saw 3200MHz, but it's not. Either I saw wrong, or the seller made a mistake and changed it. I ended up...

Re: Seeking advice for upgrading RAM

That link is 2400 MHz, which is the slowest speed but at the same time good CAS latency. I think this would be a good option if you're worried about battery life. I don't see why it would be a scam. Either way Amazon is really good with refunds right? Wow that's weird. When I go to it it's 3200. Al...

Re: Seeking advice for upgrading RAM

To get an idea what your system supports you can look in the spec sheet of your CPU and mobo. It's actually the CPU model that tells you what kind of RAM it can drive (in terms of frequency, clock speed, total capacity). Can't really tell specifically since you didn't mention which CPU and mobo you...

[mention]u1170[/mention] Thank you so much! You don't "have to" match frequency with the old ones if you're replacing both sticks. You don't even necessarily have to match it if you only replace one (it should "just work" at the slower speed), but probably don't risk it. But if y...

It's 8x2. The 16x2 sounds really appealing but it feels like a waste... why do you think it's better?

Seeking advice for upgrading RAM

Hello, My current Dell laptop has 16GB RAM, but I will soon need to work with files of 10-15GB, so I would like to upgrade to 32GB, or possibly 64GB RAM. While browsing, I saw that RAM prices vary a lot. On the Dell website, they sell 1 stick of 8GM RAM for $108: https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell...

Re: What would we accept as maximum complexity this game offers us?

That said, I definitely think part of why aoe2 has been more successful over the years is because it's just easier to get into for a new player. The civs are all sort of copy-pasted versions of the same thing with slight changes, and aesthetic differences. I can definitely see how aoe3 must just be...

Re: USA speculation thread

Well yeah, the USA wasn't much of a colonial power, since the whole country was a federation of colonies. While the original AOE3 was themed on "age of discovery" colonial empires. So this addition kinda breaks with that pattern. Perhaps you can see its vast expansion to the west as colon...

Adding the US sounds rather ridiculous. Should it be added, I expect strong features for late-game. Gatling guns as unique artillery should be straight-forward. An improved colonial milita could also make sense, making the US more difficult to rush. I dont understand, why would it be ridiculous? I ...
