wazza Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Can anyone advise if the recommended set up in FM2010 is working correctly. I had a 3 GB RAM machine and have just upgraded to 8GB RAM so I could run more leagues in FM2011. However I thought I would test it in FM2010 and when I clicked recommended set up it recommended about the same amount of leagues for a 3GB machine. I have checed on my computer,system info and it shows that the RAM I have is 8GB. Any advice from experience if the recommended set up worked or not in FM2010.

StevoRobbo Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 First off you need a 64bit OS if you have more than 3GB Ram. Secondly FM is still a 32bit application so I dont think it can utilise more than 4GB Ram anyway. Ask in HERE for more details. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wazza Posted October 13, 2010 Author Share Posted October 13, 2010 Thanks for that. I still dont understand though how the recommended set up doesnt seem to detect a RAM upgrade. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neji Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 If you're on a 32-bit OS FM won't use more than 2GB of RAM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wazza Posted October 13, 2010 Author Share Posted October 13, 2010 Niji, No its a 64 bit machine with 8GB and when I click recommended set up for a new game it doesnt seem to show what I thought it would ie it only showed the same set up as for a 3GB machine. However, I tried it with all leagues running and it seemed pretty fast. So I dont think the recommended set up works right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even on a 64bit machine FM cannot use more than 4GB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wazza Posted October 13, 2010 Author Share Posted October 13, 2010 Yes I know FM on;y uses 4GB, I wnated 8GB so that I can run more or all of the leagues for my career game. I also use alot of other applications in the background while I am playings, thats why I wanted 8GB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
