Going to build a system for running Oracle servers (as wells as VM images) and also going to use this as a home theater (Media server etc). Need feedback on whether following build is fine...
i5-2500K
Asus P8P67 Deluxe
GELID Solutions Tranquillo 120mm Hydro Dynamic CPU Cooler
G.SKILL Ripjaws DDR3 1600MHz 12GB (3x4GB)
Asus EAH5670/DI/512MD5/V2 ATI Radeon HD 5670 Chipset (775MHz )
Crucial RealSSD C300 64GB SATA III
WD 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive
Rosewill CHALLENGER Black Gaming ATX Mid Tower
LG WH10LS30 10X Blu-ray Burner
Corsair Enthusiast Series TX750 V2 High Performance 750W Power Supply
Questions that I have
1. Should I go for i7-2600k as it has hyper threading?
2. is 12GB needed or can I just live with 8GB?
