[mythtv-users] Memory performance on Nvidia ION

[Richard Morton]

Hi jya,

All i know is that one stick was not sufficient to not cause issues and
stuttering at times and i couldnt use tvdpau normal profile. Adding a secong
helped but upping the memory bsticks to the max recommended for the zotac
ion a board and putting two of them in there helped a lot with visual
quality.

As the other poster said. Suggest buying a matched stick, or swapping your
single stick for dual 1gb sticks... and trying and do please report back
here.
