Video is kinda stupid. Install XP and games from that era - 1 GB RAM would be plenty. Installing OS that takes more RAM than you have available is idiotic.
That Left 4 Dead performance is a real testament to Valve's skills at software development. The fact that CSGO essentially runs on the same version of the Source engine is mind-blowing too honestly.
Their games will run on a potato. I first started playing CS:Source back in 2005 on a Pentium 4 with an FX5200 (I think). And it ran great on low to medium settings.

Good video. 1gb of ram stopped being a good idea when service pack 3 was released for Windows XP. I remember going from 1gb to 2gb of ram and then eventually going to 4gb of ram, which on 32bit Windows XP was viewed like having 32gb of ram today, nice but not really necessary.

Back in 2012, I got my first ever laptop. It was a netbook with 1GB of Ram and an Intel Atom CPU. I made that shit run Minecraft and skype simultaneously at relatively playable performance, so I could play with friends. After upgrading it to a cheap SSD and the maximum of 2GB of ram later down the line, I felt like the luckiest person in the world. Still wonder how to this day, my 13 year old mind was able to 1GB of ram work for almost two years.

Hi ! can you test 2gb ram on your real pc? with ryzen and an RTX 3080TI? You just have to do Win+R and type "msconfig" then in boot options you check 2 GB of ram and even if you want for a future video only check 1 CPU core! it can be very interesting!
Hmm. Actually interesting idea. Though i already tried to do "one core" gaming with i7 4710HQ (yep. It mobile cpu) And didn't go that well. But since his pc is Ryzen. Maybe things would turn out to be very different
8GB of RAM is still more than enough for just simple tasks like office apps, online meeting, and browsing. Even most of the modern games are still running very well on 8GB RAM as long as you have decent graphics card and processors
I've never thought that you would do this. Back then I'm also tried 1gb of ram on windows 8.1 But because i still using HDD. L4D2 takes very long time to load. And if it ever load. Heavy stutter everywhere. That SSD helps a LOT. Cheap SSD is still SSD. Quite much faster than HDD.
I do enjoy your innovations for the channel's videos! Your efforts are appreciated. But maybe use 2 GB to save yourself the headache next time hah. Then remove 1 GB to show a quick comparison or something. I've used 512 MB in Windows 7, even with Windows 7 being much less RAM-heavy then Windows 8.1 and 10, and boy is it painful, only slightly less so on 32-bit Windows 7. Great video! I liked seeing Left 4 Dead 1. It was more enjoyable to me than 2 and runs on even weaker potatoes. Even after they ported the maps to 2 I still get on 1 sometimes.
quick little tip, going back to windows 7 helps greatly with 1gb ram specifically. at that point windows 10 just pegs it so hard, it makes almost every thing hard. but with windows 7, you can indeed start to stretch some things out better.
Well Terraria is more intensive than a lot of people think. Back when i used to run an i3 6006u laptop my Terraria actually lagged in areas with more light, it also lagged in "for the worthy" worlds for whatever reason. Thank god i got a new laptop with an i5 11400h about a year ago. Anyways what is your experience with Terraria and how much have you played it? Also, are you thinking of testing it on very bad systems in the future?
Terraria is quite a bit RAM and CPU hungry since it has the entire world loaded at all times, as far as graphics go I don't know for sure why but the lighting engine is somewhat taxing when you set it to white or color, the backdrops and the parallax effect on them also packs quite a punch, it isn't by any means a "demanding" game, you are perfectly able to play it on 4GB RAM and a Celeron (a "modern" Celeron that is), but it isn't as easy to run as it would look, i know for a fact Terraria does NOT like iGPUs, but something as low end as an RX550 should handle it pretty well
Great video showing older games and how the best of them are still fun to play. The 1GB RAM is a bit low IMHO but TBH 2-8 is much more likely to found in the wild. Still good gaming is good gaming.
There is always more bellow. In high school (i finished it last year) we had in the electronics lab horrible computers. Like pentium/celeron processors from before 2004, or so (cant recall the exact specs). They had 256mb ddr1! And we had to run simulation programs, like designsoft tina 8, or pcb programs like sprint layout. It was horrible. Later inended up getting some 256mb sticks of ddr1, and i brought one with me to the lab every time, and install it to the pc i used that day. Like windows xp 32 bit did stop lagging when typed in notepad xdd. A year later i got my dads old laptop with pentium t3200 and 4 gb of ddr2 for school. It made a huge difference!
Here's the thing... while I have no recent experience with gaming with 1GB of RAM, I have with 2GB. I don't often do computer related videos, rarely is more likely, but I got to extensively test a Celeron based laptop with 2GB of RAM and 8GB of RAM to the point I made this video which blew me away with the results. I tested over 70 games (about 50 in the video) and the difference between 2GB of RAM and 8GB of RAM was for the most part not what I was expected. For many games the performance was WORSE with the 8GB, some games wouldn't even run, where for most games the performance was too similar to matter either way. Mind you I am talking about a laptop without dedicated GPU and a much weaker CPU than the i5 you tested here. ANYWAY, thanks for the fun video as always. Thankfully your videos are never boring.
Yes, RAM is something strange in some games, I used to play GTA IV with an i3 2120, 4GB (1x4GB) and a GT 710, when I got 1 more stick of RAM, I lost 6FPS on GTA IV, which for me was very strange, but for compensate I could play GTA V and a lot of other games without many stutterings
Please no. Even on android 512 mb of ram is completely rubbish. I remember i get my first android phone back in 2015 it is already slow as f***, even google chrome already become stuttery mess.
I remember having 512MB of RAM with a Pentium 4 and I think a GeForce 6200 back in the mid 2000s. I bumped up to 2GB of RAM at some point and it blew me away in BF2. Sitting at 32GB today.
One thing we should look for is that the PC uses your SSD as a alternative source of RAM. It works worse than normal ram, but it happens to not stutter the apps.
Believe me, when I used to live in Egypt I had a pretty aweful computer with only 1gb of ram, a windows 7 and a processor from the stone age🤣🤣 I managed to play modded 1.5.2 minecraft on it (it had 53 mods and I was shocked when I ran it for the first time)
I know how this feels, I used to have a 256mb ddr1 ram disk in my laptop, it was bad. But when I upgraded to 1gb, it was bad, but atleast playable for some of my fav games
AoE III cameo surprised me quite positively :D so much nostalgia.. good ole times with 2 gb ram powered and overheating hunk of a laptop and 1 fps when I hover over like 10 settlers/soldiers
My teacher have a collectable pc . With 500 MB RAM. Dual stick. It's a 30 yrs + old pc or maybe lot more . He said he bought in his childhood. It run some Unix software. The board is also like square shaped. It's very old but still works.
My first ever PC from like 2005 or 2006 I don't remember exactly had 1GB DDR RAM and for the time and Windows XP which I used back then it was enough. But today I definitely wouldn't want to experience 1GB RAM so thank you for suffering for us 😃
Terraria stopped supporting 1gb ram in its mobile port for years by now, only limiting them to making medium or small worlds, with crashes frequent if playing in a large world. it also disables stuff like the map i think. Good on u for at least trying
Omg, Ya you're right that was terrible !!! , unique experiment with 1 gb ram xD, keep on experimenting and bring good content for us, Love your content
During 2011 I remember playing Left 4 Dead 1 with Athlon II X2 250 with 1GB RAM, I do not have GPU back then and I think the GPU is intact with the Emaxx MCP61D3-ICAFE motherboard. It loads slow as hell and I thought my PC has no hope in gaming, then my sister's husband gave me something (a 4GB RAM) and said it should help improving my PC performance. He took off the side panel and installed the RAM to he motherboard. It was my first time seeing the components inside a PC and then we booted up the PC, I was surprised of the improvements when it boots in Windows XP. I didn't know back then that PCs are upgradeable and discovering it was like magic for me, framerate are still stuttery but it loads everything much better. A year later, I asked my mom to buy a GT610 for it and I enjoyed playing video games with it. That PC even survived until the year 2020 after buying a new PC, then it finally stopped working. The last game I played with it was PUBG Lite running on 20FPS. I think that PC was just waiting to be replaced and it served me for good 10 years. I also recorded some games I played on it and posted it on my channel :)
Being able to play Spiderman 2 and far cry in 256mb ram was the greatest moments of my life. I still remember san andreas didn't run properly. It was getting less then 20fps.
I don't know how long it takes you to download all these games for each system, but I think it would definitely make your life easier to have either an external ssd or an internal ssd with a usb/type c to sata adapter and just copy the games on it instead of downloading !
Oh I do! I even have a server with games in there, but for some reason when I switched to 32 bits it was always getting disk errors and I couldn't even move the files to the PC. Verifying the files also failed every time!
Just stepped into a time machine, came out, 30 years later than 1992. First, I thought you mean 1MB of ram, then I learned that knowledge is all over the so called "internet" and looked up GB. 1 Gigabyte equals 1000mb or ram. My 386 SX 20mhz just has 2mb. Really insane! Btw, why do all people look at this strange flat rectangle when walking outside? What do they talk into this and for what?
Man 1gb of ram is seriously no problem, have installed win 10 64x on a lot of potatos, just need to set a lot of virtual ram using paging from the ssd/hdd. And turn off all the win 10 bloatware. You clearly didn't debloat windows over there looking at the ram usage.
Oh I remember my old core 2 duo, 4 GB ram and a 8500GT... Oh the gold days... I manage to play Skyrim, dead space, age of empires... Tons moded games, even some total war... I reaaly miss those days...
i remember 1gb ram being much worse, even windows 7 couldnt handle it so i sticked to xp mostly, i used that pentium 4 machine for almost a year until july last year until i got a preety decent i5 3550 machine with 12gb ram
Imagine the hell developers went through as recently as 2015 when some game companies still required them to port their games to the PS3 and 360. Which both had only had half a gigabyte of Ram (256MB system+ 256MB VRAM on PS3, and 512MB unified on 360). And a tiny portion of it was reserved for the OS... And their was no SSD virtual memory to assist, since they used sata 1 hard drives.
their operating systems were so light compared to a pc that it was not necessarily mandatory and then their processor played the biggest role in all this then why talk about an operating system for these consoles, it's barely the cache memory size of a processor between 16 and 256mb XD while windows 10 takes 3gb in 64bits and windows 11 takes 2.5gb in 64bits
Well they had 512MB of RAM but the PC version of the same game requires 2GBs minimum or more like Battlefield 3. They have to deal with 32MB system + 4MB VRAM on PS2 in 2006 and 2007
I love watching these, i spent most of my college graduation (Covid) using an hpmini as my daily driver hahhaha. Ofc i used debian, and with my atom processor and my 100 gb hard driver. Painful times

I remember having 512MB of RAM with a Pentium 4 and I think a GeForce 6200 back in the mid 2000s. I bumped up to 2GB of RAM at some point and it blew me away in BF2.
Sitting at 32GB today.
Basically what 4GB DDR3 feels on my 2011 system in 2022.
Krisp You make such good content so quickly I really enjoyed this one. :)
When I start this video I saw the video gets 69 likes 🎉🎉🎉🎉

krysipy ''now i have everything up and running''
me: more like walking
One thing we should look for is that the PC uses your SSD as a alternative source of RAM. It works worse than normal ram, but it happens to not stutter the apps.
Blocking that hunter was pretty legit
*Me getting flashbacks to the days I used 1gb of ram to game on my windows 7*😢
Believe me, when I used to live in Egypt I had a pretty aweful computer with only 1gb of ram, a windows 7 and a processor from the stone age🤣🤣 I managed to play modded 1.5.2 minecraft on it (it had 53 mods and I was shocked when I ran it for the first time)
xd i just learned that bits actually matter on windows lol keep up the good content my g
I know how this feels, I used to have a 256mb ddr1 ram disk in my laptop, it was bad. But when I upgraded to 1gb, it was bad, but atleast playable for some of my fav games
Good vid man, keep up the work

Jesse, I was ejected from the spaceship and is now lost is space. Help me Jesse.
AoE III cameo surprised me quite positively :D so much nostalgia.. good ole times with 2 gb ram powered and overheating hunk of a laptop and 1 fps when I hover over like 10 settlers/soldiers
My teacher have a collectable pc . With 500 MB RAM. Dual stick.
It's a 30 yrs + old pc or maybe lot more .
He said he bought in his childhood.
It run some Unix software.
The board is also like square shaped.
It's very old but still works.
Sad day, the only test where we couldn't see Jack.
My first ever PC from like 2005 or 2006 I don't remember exactly had 1GB DDR RAM and for the time and Windows XP which I used back then it was enough. But today I definitely wouldn't want to experience 1GB RAM so thank you for suffering for us 😃
Kryzzp you are the best, please continue to upload the awesome content 🙂
Terraria stopped supporting 1gb ram in its mobile port for years by now, only limiting them to making medium or small worlds, with crashes frequent if playing in a large world. it also disables stuff like the map i think. Good on u for at least trying
Omg, Ya you're right that was terrible !!! , unique experiment with 1 gb ram xD, keep on experimenting and bring good content for us, Love your content
During 2011 I remember playing Left 4 Dead 1 with Athlon II X2 250 with 1GB RAM, I do not have GPU back then and I think the GPU is intact with the Emaxx MCP61D3-ICAFE motherboard. It loads slow as hell and I thought my PC has no hope in gaming, then my sister's husband gave me something (a 4GB RAM) and said it should help improving my PC performance. He took off the side panel and installed the RAM to he motherboard. It was my first time seeing the components inside a PC and then we booted up the PC, I was surprised of the improvements when it boots in Windows XP. I didn't know back then that PCs are upgradeable and discovering it was like magic for me, framerate are still stuttery but it loads everything much better. A year later, I asked my mom to buy a GT610 for it and I enjoyed playing video games with it. That PC even survived until the year 2020 after buying a new PC, then it finally stopped working. The last game I played with it was PUBG Lite running on 20FPS. I think that PC was just waiting to be replaced and it served me for good 10 years. I also recorded some games I played on it and posted it on my channel :)
Being able to play Spiderman 2 and far cry in 256mb ram was the greatest moments of my life. I still remember san andreas didn't run properly. It was getting less then 20fps.
I don't know how long it takes you to download all these games for each system, but I think it would definitely make your life easier to have either an external ssd or an internal ssd with a usb/type c to sata adapter and just copy the games on it instead of downloading !
Oh I do! I even have a server with games in there, but for some reason when I switched to 32 bits it was always getting disk errors and I couldn't even move the files to the PC. Verifying the files also failed every time!

Man how do i feel looking back to my potato days with 2GB DDR3
gosh I can't get enough of your content!
i appreciate your hardwork though man !!
Your commentary is top notch brother.
In love with your content 😂❤️
this reminds me of my childhood so much
Everyone talks about the benchmark but never his peak CS gameplay skills
Your reaction to TF2 bots made me laugh so loud it woke my roommates.
L4D2 gave me that strong nostalgia i had when it was 2016
Your just awesome at making videos we love you ❤️
😂 Amazing video fam
bro that's is all the low end gamer playing games or watching youtube in 4GB Ram or under only low end gamers know the pain
You know you got your priorities right when you got more video RAM than system RAM.
You dont even run in 1gb ram with aero
Just stepped into a time machine, came out, 30 years later than 1992. First, I thought you mean 1MB of ram, then I learned that knowledge is all over the so called "internet" and looked up GB. 1 Gigabyte equals 1000mb or ram. My 386 SX 20mhz just has 2mb. Really insane! Btw, why do all people look at this strange flat rectangle when walking outside? What do they talk into this and for what?
thanks for making this video man
1995: A gigabyte of ram should do the trick
2022:
Man, i remember the days when 512MB of RAM was plenty for everything. Now i consider everything under 4GB an underwhelming system.
Man 1gb of ram is seriously no problem, have installed win 10 64x on a lot of potatos, just need to set a lot of virtual ram using paging from the ssd/hdd. And turn off all the win 10 bloatware. You clearly didn't debloat windows over there looking at the ram usage.
this looks like lots of fun!
First thing that comes to my mind is Stardew Valley. It runs on my 2008 Macbook like a champ. I think it will run well with 1 GB of RAM.
Oh I remember my old core 2 duo, 4 GB ram and a 8500GT... Oh the gold days... I manage to play Skyrim, dead space, age of empires... Tons moded games, even some total war... I reaaly miss those days...
this make my 4gb ddr3 ram feel good
It's unbelievable for me that newer Windows than XP even boots up with 1 GB.
Jokes on you...
I'm still using my 1GB DDR SDRAM (DDR1) which is 512x2 sticks on my old 2005 Windows XP PC...
nice upgrade in the video quality, with the (new?) cam and mic. It makes a big difference, I think.
i remember 1gb ram being much worse, even windows 7 couldnt handle it so i sticked to xp mostly, i used that pentium 4 machine for almost a year until july last year until i got a preety decent i5 3550 machine with 12gb ram
Imagine the hell developers went through as recently as 2015 when some game companies still required them to port their games to the PS3 and 360. Which both had only had half a gigabyte of Ram (256MB system+ 256MB VRAM on PS3, and 512MB unified on 360). And a tiny portion of it was reserved for the OS... And their was no SSD virtual memory to assist, since they used sata 1 hard drives.
their operating systems were so light compared to a pc that it was not necessarily mandatory and then their processor played the biggest role in all this
then why talk about an operating system for these consoles, it's barely the cache memory size of a processor between 16 and 256mb XD while windows 10 takes 3gb in 64bits and windows 11 takes 2.5gb in 64bits
Well they had 512MB of RAM but the PC version of the same game requires 2GBs minimum or more like Battlefield 3.
They have to deal with 32MB system + 4MB VRAM on PS2 in 2006 and 2007
The 20min experience that you made it here I get trough it for like 10 years or more
Why not grab at least another 1gb?
@@zWORMzGaming well that was before now iam using 2gram and saving money for 2 of 4gram
I love watching these, i spent most of my college graduation (Covid) using an hpmini as my daily driver hahhaha. Ofc i used debian, and with my atom processor and my 100 gb hard driver. Painful times
this guy is working miracles hahahah
Zamn 60 second per frame
Imagine the dude who actually bought the other PC components but forgot the ram
