    Ram memory Question

    Yeah, I think I will go with your suggestion. I will do a return on the 3200 and get 16g instead- 2 modules of 8g DDR 2666. I was watching a review of that board and they pretty much recommended going with 16g anyway and like you said it will be cheaper in the long run. The computer is pretty...

    Ram memory Question

    Thanks for the reply....I did not plan to do any overclocking, as that is something that i haven't gotten into. I think based on your reply is to do a return of the Ram and reorder 2- DD4 2666 modules and send back the 3200 I ordered in error. I think it is best to keep it as per the specs...

I would like for it to boot to this drive, but like you explained this is not going to happen ( this...

    Moving Harddrive from one computer to another

    I have a computer that gave up the ghost. The hard drive is perfect, so I want to move it to another computer as the boot drive. I have the original win7 OS disc of that drive. I don't want to lose the data that is on the drive, so my question is: If I put that drive in the newer computer and...
