If you're looking for a supportive memory foam mattress with a nicely cushioned top layer, the Hypnia Supreme Memory Mattress will tick the box. If you're looking for a medium firm design at a reasonable price, this is a great option.
Below the cover is 3cm of graphite infused open-cell foam that gives the mattress a bit of bounce and is designed to help keep you at the optimum temperature as you sleep. This works by drawing heat away from the body while you sleep to stop the mattress making you feel hot and sweaty like some memory foam designs can.
To get an idea of pressure relief on this mattress, I measured the sinkage using an 8kg kettlebell weight. I placed the weight in the centre of the mattress and measured the sinkage at 1.2 inches, which seems about average for a supportive memory foam mattress.
Simbatex Foam mattress
For a memory foam mattress that feels a little firmer, you could try the Simba Simbatex Foam Mattress, which costs from 479 for a double. Like the Hypnia, it comes with an open-cell structure, but this allows 30 x more airflow than your dense, standard memory foam.

Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory (HSAM) is a memory phenomenon first described by researchers at the Center for the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory at UC Irvine. Individuals with HSAM have a superior ability to recall specific details of autobiographical events, tend to spend a large amount of time thinking about their past and have a detailed understanding of the calendar and its patterns.
Where we stand: So far, a number of other individuals have been identified with similar abilities and a number of other research groups have begun to explore this phenomenon. Memory for public events has typically been used as a screening criterion which is then followed by more rigorous memory testing. However, it is now clear that these tests rely heavily on expertise as well as the age of the participant. There is also a strong cultural bias in the questions typically asked.
So far, the studied conducted at UC Irvine suggest that individuals with HSAM have superior abilities in autobiographical memories but are no different from age- and sex-matched control participants on standard laboratory memory tests. Furthermore, MRI studies of their brain show preliminary evidence of specific regions and networks that may be different from control participants, although this is work that is still quite preliminary.
SDAM: In 2015, the opposite memory phenotype was identified by colleagues at Baycrest's Rotman Research Institute in Toronto. Professor Brian Levine and colleagues described and named a condition known as Severely Deficient Autobiographical Memory (SDAM), which refers to a lifelong inability to vividly recollect or re-experience personal past events from a first-person perspective. We are now launching a collaboration with our colleagues at the Rotman to understand both extremes of autobiographical memory.
Enabling the /3GB switch on 32bit Windows won't allow a 32bit application to address more memory unless the application is Large Address Aware. If it is LAA, then a 32bit application could address up to 3GB when the switch is enabled.
So, the short answer to your headline question is: Unless especially compiled as Large Address Aware, a 32bit application cannot address more than 2GB of memory, even on a 64bit OS and system (and even if LAA, the cap would still be 4GB on 64bit).
Also, have you monitored memory usage of the game and system when a crash occurs? Given you only have 4GB total in the system, could it be that you're simply running out of RAM for the entire system, and so the game or system chokes to death when it ends up being paged out to disk?
Hyperthymesia, also known as hyperthymestic syndrome or highly superior autobiographical memory (HSAM), is a condition that leads people to be able to remember an abnormally large number of their life experiences in vivid detail. It is extraordinarily rare, with only 62 people in the world having been diagnosed with the condition as of 2021.[3][4] One who has hyperthymesia is called a hyperthymesiac.[5]
There is a distinction between those with hyperthymesia and those with other forms of exceptional memory, who generally use mnemonic or similar rehearsal strategies to memorize long strings of information. Memories recalled by hyperthymestic individuals tend to be personal, autobiographical accounts of both significant and mundane events in their lives. This extensive and highly unusual memory does not derive from the use of mnemonic strategies; it is encoded involuntarily and retrieved automatically.[8][9] Despite perhaps being able to remember the day of the week on which a particular date fell, hyperthymestics are not calendrical calculators, like some people with savant syndrome. Rather, hyperthymestic recall tends to be constrained to a person's lifetime and is believed to be a subconscious process.
Price displays considerable difficulty in memorizing allocentric information. According to James McGaugh, "Her autobiographical memory, while incredible, is also selective and even ordinary in some respects".[1] This was demonstrated by her having poor performance on standardised memory tests and average performance at school, unable to apply her exceptional memory to her studies.
Even those with a high level of hyperthymesia do not remember exactly everything in their lives or have "perfect memory". Studies have shown that it is a selective ability, as shown by Price's case, and they can have comparative difficulty with rote memorization and therefore cannot apply their ability to school and work.
Cases of hyperthymesia have forced many people to re-evaluate what is meant by "healthy" memory: "it isn't just about retaining the significant stuff. Far more important is being able to forget the rest."[14]
Because of the small number of people diagnosed with hyperthymesia, relatively little is known about the processes governing this superior memory ability. However, more is beginning to be understood about this condition.[8]
It has been proposed that the initial encoding of events by such people includes semantic processing, and therefore semantic cues are used in retrieval. Once cued, the memory is retrieved as episodic and follows a pattern similar to that of a spreading activation model. This is particularly evident in Jill Price's case. She describes how one memory triggers another, which in turn triggers another and how she is powerless to stop it: "It's like a split screen; I'll be talking to someone and seeing something else."[1] This theory serves to explain why hyperthymestics have both a sense of 'knowing' (semantic memory) and 'remembering' (episodic memory) during recollection.
One writer claimed hyperthymesia may be a result of reviewing memories constantly to an obsessive-compulsive degree.[15] However, Price has completely dismissed this article as "a load of crap" and others with hyperthymesia claim to never revisit uneventful memories. Other findings have shown that the tendencies to absorb new information and fantasize are personality traits that are higher in hyperthymestics than the rest of the population. These traits, absorption and fantasizing, also correlated with a test which measures superior autobiographical memory within the hyperthymestic sample.[16]
An MRI study conducted on Price provides a plausible argument as to the neurological foundation of her superior memory.[17][18] Both the temporal lobe and the caudate nucleus were found to be enlarged.
For autobiographical memory, the hippocampus, located in the medial temporal lobe, is involved in the encoding of declarative memory (memory for facts and events), while the temporal cortex is involved in the storage of such memory.[20] The caudate nucleus is primarily associated with procedural memory, in particular habit formation, and is, therefore, intrinsically linked to obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Parker and colleagues used a variety of standardised neuropsychological tests in their diagnosis of Price's hyperthymesia. These included tests of memory, lateralisation, executive functions, language, calculations, IQ, and visual-spatial and visual-motor functions.[1] They also devised novel tests to examine the extent of her memory abilities. These mostly consisted of questions pertaining to specific dates and events in history. Some of her personal recollections were verified with diary entries, as well as by her mother.[1]
In March 2009, Price was interviewed for an article in Wired magazine by Gary Marcus, a cognitive psychologist at New York University.[15] Price's brain had been subject to a brain scan and the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex had been reportedly normal. Marcus claimed, however, that her brain resembled "those of people with obsessive-compulsive disorder" and suggested that her remarkable memory might be "the byproduct of obsession", claiming also that "the memory woman clings tightly to her past". Price has since reacted angrily to such claims and McGaugh has also expressed skepticism about this explanation.[29] Price gave her first interview in over a year for the UK's Channel 4 documentary The Boy Who Can't Forget, and provided an insight into just how difficult life can be for people who have this ability.[29]
