best gaming pc ram image

Q. I'm building a high end gaming pc with a gtx 580 and a overclocked i7 950 with 4.4 ghz and i'm just wondering how much ram would be good for it i'm gonna be playing games like crysis and other games like cod?

Answer
You have a 950 core i7, which means you have a Triple channel RAM controller on the CPU. What does that mean, you are best off getting RAM that is meant to be run in Triple channel. If you have windows 64-bit, you will get a Triple channel DDR3 kit that comes with 3 2GB sticks for a total of 6GB.

4GB is the sweet spot for dual channel RAM, but you have the 950...

so there you go.

Im looking for a gaming pc that can run games like Battlefield 3 and Skyrim a little past recomended settings. Maybe a pc with 8 gb ram, quad core, and better than ATI-Radeon HD 6750. Im hoping to find one in under $900, or if possible, under $800.

Im not much of a pc wiz but if you could leave any links to some computers with these qualifications I would be really grateful.

Here's a great PC, it has an AMD 965 B.E. (Quad Core) which is still a fairly powerful processor, it's not a i5 2500k by any means but it will definitely get the job done. Also it has an AMD 6850 (Far better than a 6750) which is what I have in my system, I play BF3 and Skyrim on High settings with 40-50 FPS, it runs so smooth.

Also you can design your own PC if you want, and you said you're not much of a PC wiz, these guys offer free consultation, so they will work within your budget to get the most bang for your buck.
