System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, software stuff (e.g. Unity, Photoshop, etc.), Video streaming, Web surfing

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: getting them from a shop in Singapore. List of parts and prices can be found here: http://tradepac.com.sg/

Except for the 2x25? ram is looks fine. I think you may have meant 2x2gb ram?
