  • Bunch of buzzkills. What happened to the good old days when people would mock you for not having enough grunt, not having a big enough hdd or enough RAM. Shit, I can't believe no one has said SLI that motherfucker or you're DTM! No wonder you all use fucking Macs.

  • not having ... enough RAM

    Get 32GB, it's a small addition but will make a big difference, especially if you want to run some VMs on the machine (I have a separate VMWare ESXi box at home for that).

    Got a supercomputer (of sorts), two old RLX 300ex blade servers, 24 blades each. A total of 48 x PIII 700MHz CPUs (old but 33.6GHz in total), 96GB RAM total, 7.7TB disk space total.

    Can only turn it on when everyone is out as it is SO FUCKING LOUD.

  • Yeah, could bump it though I tend not to bother with VMs so huge RAM wasn't exactly up there on the list but I guess if I stick with my future-proof idea I could stick 32 in it now and worry about upgrading later.
