It's 4GB GPU RAM- He's gonna get 256GB of those pesky little modules in there somehow 
EDIT- Do they make 64 GB sticks, btw? If so, then how do they even look? I don't even wanna Google 'coz I'm kinda scared at this point

a little more real (dream) pc:
cpu - core i7 2600 (non k)
cooler - cooler master hyper 212 or thermaltake jing or intel's tower cooler.
mobo - gigabyte z68 ud3 or ud4 (the one with a displayport. graphics port is a must), atx
ram - 16 gb ddr3 1600 (will later upgrade to 32 gb ddr3 1866)
storage - 2x 2 tb samsung/ hitachi (later add 120 and 256 gb intel ssd)
gfx - igp (get a raedon 7850 or a similarly configured nvidia 6xx, whichever is the most power-performance efficient)
case - thermaltake armor/chaser
8 cooling fans, 2 cpu cooling fans, lcd fan controller, card reader, lite-on bd-r drive
display - 2x 22" samsung 120 hz monitor, led- backlit ips if possible.
psu - a 750w 80+ gold modular.
may be a noise cancelling headphone too.
this one i might be able to buy 
Ah, if money wasn't an option.....
An Asus Maximus IV Extreme Z68 motherboard
32GB RAM
Corsiar 800D Case
Silverstone 1500w PSU
4x GTX580's in SLI
3x Monitors (or whatever the max #of displays is for nVidia cards)
An Ivy Bridge i7 overclocked
...and all of that cooled with a custom watercooling loop 
Oh yeah, and 2x 120/128GB boot SSD's in RAID 0 with a 1TB WD Caviar Black for storage
And finally, an amazing speaker system and a quality headset.

I'm not getting the 139 dollar case in a 10K build 
Shouldn't you get something appropriately ridiculous like that weird robotic transformer style Thermaltake case or something?

I'd go with the Cooler Master Cosmos II from the Maximum PC setup but it isn't available yet so I have to substitute for the time being.
On second thought I like that Thermaltake case - it's ridiculous and costly at the same time, it's perfect for this build.

If I were going to do some crazy custom water cooling setup or a build based on the EVGA Classified SR-2, that might be an option but just using an H100 I don't think a case that large is really that necessary.
