    Question about using diferent memory?

    I am using an ASUS Sabertooth motherboard with 16GB DDR3 Corsair Vengeance (2x8gb). I was just wondering if I added in 2x8gb in as well Ripjaw X (same 1600 mhz) if you think it would pick it up as 32gb or would there be a conflict due to different brand or something? :confused:

    Oh alright, sorry I didn't get exactly what he meant! I think I'll just replace the HSF with the H60. Also thanks for the final advice - think I'm pretty much set on the build plus the last modifications!

    Okay, now that I think about it 512GB may be a little too much for me? I mean I really will probably only use up 200GB max as I typically don't store that much or have many games I play. I play about 3 games total, and don't store movies or anything much. (If I did I figure an external or cheap...

    Ok great, thanks a lot for your input I highly appreciate it! As for the case, I was going for looks, as well as airflow based on reviews I read as well as being able to open/close the side panel without much issues and having a little room to work on things. The next gentleman that responded I...

    Yeah, I would wait - but kind of eager to get my build asap. How's this case instead? Vengeance Series C70 ATX Mid Tower Gaming Computer Case - Gunmetal Black Also..I think I'm going to stick with the 680 GTX (just for the heck of it :P), and maybe overclock it if I can figure that stuff out...

    Okay so this is what I have so far, feel free to let me know if you can provide any logical changes? The mobo I wanted to put a little more into to ensure the quality and what not but wasn't sure if the one I went with is the right choice. UH12NS29 Internal 12x Blu-ray Combo Microsoft Windows...

    Great thanks for the advice, I didn't intentionally sell it... just hard times came up and I had to part ways with it. :-( Now about ram, is 32gb overkill? Or would you recommend it if I plan to run a server, develop mobile apps, use photoshop, play games, watch dvds, burn dvds, etc? Thanks again!

    No I know what you meant, I was considering buying just about everything you posted with a few minor adjustments (adding faster ram, and I believe another ssd) .. but I was just posting my previous build so that you can compare what you had stated previously to my previous build. Sorry for any...

    Okay so after reviewing my old build this is what I had previously (found the documentation on it): Intel Core i7-960 Processor 3.20 GHz - EVGA GeForce GTX560 Ti 448 Cores CLASSIFIED 1280 MB GDDR5 Rosewill Xtreme Series 850W 80 PLUS Certified ATX12V/EPS12V Power Supply RX850-S-B G.SKILL 16GB...

    Ok great! All looks good, have it in the cart and ready to go. Although I did come across this today and was wondering if it was worth the price? It looks like its loaded with a warranty and what not, and the customization on alienware was around 3600$ for the build but they're selling it a lot...

    And I don't mind carrying around a full tower it won't be frequent travels with it as most competitions require you to use their machines. Full tower I feel would give me more room to work with stuff.

    I sold my last one which was a 27" with the higher resolution you listed.

    I also forgot to mention, this 3k is play money so it was put aside fully for a computer that will last me for the next 5 years or so that I will want to throw any game at it with no frame lag. I plan to hopefully take this rig with me on the road to network conventions and play professionally...
