Hi,

Buying a new pc

3.2 ghz
ATI 256MB PCI Express x16 ATI Radeon X800 XT graphics card
20" TFT

was going to get 2 gigs of ram (2048MB PC-4200 Dual Channel DDR2 533MHz

[2x1024])

I will be using the machine for games (Far cry,doom 3 and half life 2)

Am i waisting my money getting 2 gigs.
Should i just get 1 gig and spend the saved money on upgrading the cpu to

3.6 ghz?


Thanks

I would just get a single Gb of memory, since it doesnt look like you have a
budget, you could get 2x nVidia graphics cards and use one of those cool
little link cables.
