    Hey all, i just recently upgraded my XPS M1210's RAM from 1GB to 1.5GB (changed one of the 512mb sticks to a 1GB stick). i have noticed a slight performance increase when running a lot of processes, but i have also noticed that my CPU usage is running at a higher % now....comments?

    BTW, i know this should be in another section, i will be selling my 1 stick of 512MB DDR2 memory if anybody is interested.

    You need to check what process's are utilizing the CPU - Also the process's you run the more your CPU is going to run
