no vid card yet, i havent decided, just running off the vid card on the mobo for now. it can handle d3, thats good enough for me.
why the crazy amount of ram and stupid processor? the mobo + cpu was cheap, great deal combo, the ram costs 200 bucks. since i havent built a new comp in over 5 years, i found the pricing reasonable. with that being said, i didnt know pricing dropped so much. (i remember paying $380 bucks for 4MB more ram back in the day)
at the same time, i run multiple programs all the time, from ftp, brower w/ multi windows, tv tuner, word processor, mail, excel, serato, audio editting, and stupid chat programs, the extra ram is welcomed. before i would get a little window statting my browser was using 500+mb, and would start seeing it lagg, now it says im running 700+mb, and it doesnt slow down one bit.
the cpu and ram are for extreme multi tasking, that and serato is pretty resource hungry when it wants to be.
undecided on a cpu heat sink as well, the setup is running fairly cool.
