but then I remember it lets me handle ~30gb of cc in ts2 with only an hour loading, but once you have loaded up at least one lot it takes less than 2-3 minutes to do the rest.

I don’t even really play w a lot of high poly cc (heck, I still use a lot of maxis items anyways) either so the memory farts are most likely bc of ram dirt that collects over time. 

So thank u gaming computer~
