What do you need 8-12GB of RAM for?

Have a look at this one, even though it only has 4GB of RAM:

Hey buwish, Asus K52JT-B1 is very nice laptop, but 1.73 Ghz is not enough for cool games like Crysis 2 and it will not be able to play Battlefield 3 when it will come out. Crysis 2 system requirments are below, however, Crysis 2 is made from Cry Engine 3, and Battlefield 3 is made from Frostbite Engine 2, which graphics are better, so here are Crysis 2 system requirments:

Intel Core 2 Duo (2.2GHz)/ AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ processor
2GB of RAM
1GB Video RAM

I suggest a laptop based on Huron river with a 520M(for savings) or a 540M(for budget performance).

4GB is enough for gaming (Design programs may need 8GB)

a 250GB budget hardrive (around $60)

And a i7 2630 GM for all the processing power you''ll need

Punch those stats into this builder throw in windows home premium and a WLAN and you've got a gaming laptop for 1,400 AMD
