Asus P5N32-E SLI PLUS M/B
2GB Team X-Treem Dark 1066
XFX nVidia GeForce 8800GTS

I just want more RAM for when GTA V comes out. Other than that I think my rig will hold up nicely. I can always clock my CPU a bit...apparently I can expect 2.8 or 3GHz without additional cooling, so all I need is RAM. Think 8Gb in total should be enough. Running Max Payne 3 on High with all the filtering and antialising on now

8gigs should be perfect..Pc international and Cyberdyne got rely good prices ..Cyberdyne deliver which is cool..tho what kinda sucks is the fact that DDR2 has become alota more pricey than the top end Ram..cos they don produce alot anymore
