Even 512 just about does it these days.

Only reason to use upto 4 gigs, is a total photoshop whore, or some audio or video. And servers

I got to use it once, I would get one but im just too poor and accustomed to windows to change, maybe when i start working

maybe we should turn this into an ongoing thing? keep editing with best hardware so anyone can find it if they want? just post on this thread and then ill edit the original post, actually just switched out the ram, cuz g.skill's is cheaper and has lower latency, maybe ill add in a a pair of heatspreaders...
