There is no point in 2gb of RAM unless your running SQL server. Down it to 1GB and put the money on something else. Other than that, it looks good to me.

Might be a point to it in the future man. Like I said in a different thread, at one time people said "there is not point to having 256 MB of RAM. Just get 128 and spend the money on something else."

The GeForce 7800/7800GT/7800GTX are going ot be launched pretty soon as of I know, i'd say u get one of those and downgrade on something else..... btw http://www.nforcershq.com/article2947.html says june 22nd..

Money is not option to me.

Ahaha Shawn...

Btw, longhorn might require 1gb of ram, so people might say that 1.5 is needed for games on longhorn. Maybe, I don't know.

 

[Wayniac]

That's interesting...
