Hello everyone im new here but im also finding my self going back and forth on the following issue

i am extremely soon, buying a very expensive computer from a website that's rather cheap (I know i know, build it my self and save money, i got reasons for doing it this way)

i explained this to my friends who are tech savey however when i told him i was planning on getting 4GB of mushkin Ram he said i wouldnt need 4gb of Ram for a while and id get more of a performence boost from a 2nd geforce 8800 gtx now ill link the system spec's for the system on the Entier order

feel free to tell me what you would change and why, this system is roughtly 2500 dollers and my budget is bassically 2400 so im dipping into some reserves a tad but i CAN add the 2nd 8800 if i drop 2gb's of ram

A lot of no-names in there. I don't buy anything unless I know what I'm getting.

Vista can use 4 gigs of RAM, though.
 
ur buying from cyberpower.......

firstly ditch those PMPO speakers... they are lame!!! u should look into buying with integrated graphics... buy the 8800gtx from newegg, lose the 4gb ram and get 2, or ditch those all together and get the 512mb stick from cyberpower, then get g-skil HZ's and put em in urself in ur new PC, since it costs u the same to get 4gb from newegg as to get 2 gb from cyberpower
