hi
am planning to build a system with Core 2 Quad Q6600....and Nvidia 8800GTS.But am still undecided on the ram.I really dont have knowledge about ram.Last time when i build a system (Athlon X2 4200+) i ended buying a costly Kingston RAM that performed below par.I simply went with a costly option as i had no clue.I am 3D artist and 3ds max is the main application i'll be working with.My experience over the last years has been that i have not seen a memory usage of more than 1.1 GB of ram even working with very heavy scenes.I didnt played much games during this period but looking forward to play some high end games like Crysis at medium settings.
I have decide to not buy more than 2 GB ram.Would like to know your views about this.
I want a value for money 2GB ram.....i'll probably go with DDR2 800[PC 6400] but my problem is what brand to go for.
The market is flooded with so many products....from $61 PNY to $385 corsair products.What should i look for??
