Windows 95/XP/7/8.1/10 on 512MB RAM PC !!! 2020

ive used windows 10 a dual core processor with 2 gb ram for a while and i couldnt even use the pc when it connected to wifi
i dont know how any man has the patience to try 512 mbs!!!

Windows 8 end 8.1 explde with 8 gig of ram end quad core… 512mb is a nuclear bomb

95: overkill
XP: great
7: average
8.1: slow
10: wtf no

Imagine if he runs windows 11 on this

I'm more into windows Vista
It's more nostalgic

This made me feel proud of my 4gb ram low end pc 😆

I once had a Windows 7 PC in may 02 2023 activation.

am still have 2gb ram 10 years now even in 2023

4gigs is the sweet spot. It is recommended for most users, it can open a plenty of chrome tabs (no joke did that on my inspiron) and gaming is like, on one end, a little laggy, but jumping works ok. 4gb can also run video editing apps (totally not davinci resolve). Overall, I have been okay while working with 4gb ram but if you don't want explorer sometimes crashing, or laggy context menus, I would recommend 4gb. But if you're trying to upgrade for the first time, check if your current amount is enough for you.

Atleast windows xp is usuable

Vista and 98 crying in a corner

You forgot about windows vista and windows 8.0 2012 original one???

tiny os 10 run at vbox with
512mb still fast like normal computer

Grandpa pc be like

Wait why in win 8.1 the computer is slow mine runs fine

i run windows 8.1 on my old fujitsu laptop with 512mb ram with no issues

512 mb ram is a beast for windows 95 and 98

Mine has 480mb of ram, and cpu amd semprom(™) 2600+ 1.60ghz, which one do you indicate

U are using virtual right 😂

My dad has a very old pc in his clinic with has 512mb of ram and has windows xp on it but sometimes I have played games like gta san,gta vice city age of empires 2 and they run well cpu is Intel Pentium dual core 2.80ghz that pc was build in 90s

I have windows7 512mb ram and i play gta 5 30fps

I just installed it on an old laptop that only has 512MB. It is not doing well at all. The CPU is 1.8GHZ, well above Microsoft's recommended 1GHZ. Everything takes minutes to accomplish. Installing a program, even just loading a webpage. It originally came with Vista and I'm pretty sure I had XP on it at one point. It never behaved like this. I was thinking about adding another 512 to bring it up to the recommended amount, the laptop's max capacity. But at this point I don't think would make enough of a difference.

im happy with my 16 gigs

to me i feel like 16 gigs is the sweet spot

Core2duo 2.1ghz, 6gb ram, 320m nvidia. What is the best performance os for me?

Bruh u skipped vista

hi bro how can i install windows 7 x86-32 bits on 256mb of ram? 700mhz cpu

how much ram does your pc have? i got 8gb

Cool, I was boy
I had 7 years old of I had computer old was windows xp
I used very windows xp in 2007

can i run windows 8.1 on this specs??
processor single core 3.06GHZ
1GB RAM
VGA GTX 650TI

Apricated

Interesting. So both 32 bit versions of Windows 8 and 10, kept 700Mb of RAM content in Paging File, as physical RAM capped out. That would mean that even with 1GB you're still using Paging File and constantly writing to disk, as total RAM capacity needed here was around 1.2GB
I remember days on Windows XP when running OS, listening to internet radio, having firefox opened with few pages and some background tasks, was barely using 512Mb.
Progress is one thing, but it seems that programmers are getting lazy and not optimizing things well enough.

Limbo PC Emulator Moment XD

"XP" is an emotion...espicially the "Log in Screen Music"❤ & "7" is the Ultimate Beauty no Windows can beat till now.

try windows 11

I’m gonna run windows 11 on 512MB in old Laptop 💀
Processor: Duo core T7300 2.00GHz
And now the memory card is runned fuccking out

In earlier my pc was windows 7 and i updated it into windows 10 , after it has became very very slower,after it again i reinstall windows 7 and now it is better perform than windows 10 but my ram was 1GB only, is it ok that i will update it into windows 10 , it will no matter ,?anyone can help me plz.....😭😭😭😭😭

Why no 8 & vista

Windows 95 , Windows XP and Windows 7 gave best performance on 512 MB Ram

I have 1 GB ram with Intel dual core processor could i install win 8.1?

You can try all versions in 512MB with 120GB SSD

Vista crying in the corner

It is wrong to test on an emulator. I have similar characteristics, namely: Celeron D 336, ATI Radeon x550 256 mb, RAM DDR1 512 mb. Windows XP is going well, but it lags in the browser. Windows 7 pro is also going fine, but it also lags in the browser, you can play some old games, but in GTA:SA 20-30 fps

if i make my win 7 to win 8.1 using iso file with 2gb ram will it work as it should?

tbh if your using a pc with less then 4 gb ram on windows 10 in 2021, you really need to think of an upgrade.

This would work better, if you used a really good cpu, and you had a really fast ssd.
