Does anyone know if Intel Turbo Memory take up memory address space? Basically, I am running 4 gigs on a 32-bit OS and am only seeing 3.0 rather than 3.x. Trying to figure out why....
Follow along with the video below to see how to install our site as a web app on your home screen.

Turbo Memory can also increase battery life by up to 30 minutes in some circumstances.
The pagefile is stil used with that amount of RAM; would it not still be beneficial, regardless of the usage, to have lesser consumption of power for the same task? Not to mention the hibernate state.Only if you have a RAM deficiency. The battery life savings come from using the Turbomemory instead of caching to the page file on the HD, but with enough RAM the page file isn't used much anyways, so any differences are minimal at best.
I got the Turbo Memory mostly for the ReadyDrive half, since I am running a 7200 rpm hard drive. However, I guess I have also been secretly hoping that SP1 will bring improvements to ReadyBoost and make the other half more functional, as well.
