i originally had a much lower priced pc picked out for building..but now ive come into a bit more money and have now picked out a build that i will put together myself..this will be my first ever build.. :rolleyes:

im not going to be overclocking this..and i do intend to add another gig of ram in the months after buying this..is there anything else yous think i should change..and will this have good frames at the max resolution of the montior at 1440 x 900 playing games like doom 3 or Quake wars E.T which is supposed to be exactly same as doom 3..

and another question is there going to be much of a difference in performance having four sticks of 512mb ram instead of two 1gb sticks..

cheers

I dont think the 4 sticks will hinder anything that you will notice. just make sure they are in dual channel mode,
 
ok.. :)

and where will i do that..in the bios..?? would it not already be set to dual channel mode??
 
It should automatically be in dual channel if you put it in the proper slots (mobo manual will tell you which those are).
