ATTN: Praetor...

[goosy22]

i know you other boys/ladies can do it to but praetor always makes suggestions that seem to kick ass...

anyways i need a system for around $500-$600, bought solely at newegg.com... that'll be a good mix of gaming and office type apps... any other ?'s let me know... i'll get the keyboard, speakers, monitor, os, etc...

thanks...

(i spose if anyone else wants to make suggestions, go for it...)

alrighty... lol...


thanks... one question though, is it better to go with 2 sticks of RAM instead of one?

i always heard that going with one is better cause sometimes they will clock down to the next highest speed... or maybe i'm wrong...

 

[gamerman4]

RAM only usually clocks down when all RAM slots on the mobo are filled or when one RAM card is slower than the others (i.e. mixing DDR400 with DDR333).

 

[goosy22]

ahh... thanks for clearing that up...
