I plan on buying and assembling my new computer shortly after the release of sandy bridge, but I can't seem to decide on my memory. I can't decide wether its worth getting 6 GB of Triple channel ram, versus getting 8 GB of dual channel ram, and probably higher ghz.
I will be using the system for both gaming AND video editing - prosumer/eventually pro, but for now prosumer.
Rig:
Gigabyte x58A UD3R Motherboard
Any GTX 470 ( Maybe a MSi or PNY 465 unlocked/flashed to 470 ) ( will sli later )
1 TB 7200 RPM
Core i7 950
H50/H70 Corsair Liquid Cooling
Yet to decide case + doesn't matter for what Im asking
Maybe an SSD later
Please Help, Im trying not too spend too much on the ram seeing as my budget is just slightly above 1000 at Highest.
