Thinking about building a computer from Cyberpower.com and this is what I initially came up with. The main question is with the video cards. Is it better to go with 2 or just 1? Also the ram, is it really to my advantage to get 12 GB of RAM? I'm really kinda new to a lot of this so any help would be appreciated, thanks.
