The main concern i have is with the CPU and Memory. I am really thinin the 3400 is bettter then the 3500 but i was hearing something about Ram being better for each kind and i have no clue which one is better...

That is what i plan to but, any help is deaply appretiated!
 
I would switch to the 3200, not $150 worth of performance difference, but that is just me.
