Centos 7 not seeing memory upgrade

Kevin68 · 09-25-2019, 09:17 AM

Guys and gals, I decided to give up on using this computer for a test platform. Instead, I took my retired AMD 8350 (8 core) cpu with a motherboard that supports 32 gigs of memory and use it as a test platform.

Thank you everyone for your help, but I feel using this old core 2 quad that will only see 3 gigs of memory is a waste of time.

Honestly, can't blame you.

Thank you.

I was wanting to set up a lab with multiple systems, hardware configs, and OSs. Now its looking more like one system using virtualization to run multiple OSs.

With the way things are going in the tech world using virtualization may be a better option than dedicated computers to a single OS.
