Witch OS can read more than 4 GB RAM? I know just VISTA can read at last 4 GB but more than 4 GB...?
You will use just one of 4GB RAM as single channel?

I dont use Video cards with fans because it crashes very soon.

I dont trust WD and i dont use so big HDD because if it crashed u can lose so many datas, better 2 or 3 HDDs of 500GB than one 1.5TB.

I am not 100% sure but I think windows 7 will support it and I was planning 24 gigs total 6x 4gig chips.

Maybe Rage would know he deals with servers on the daily basis. Smile

u don't need all that computing power lol all games of the future will be ran on a cloud platform where u just stream the media from a super-sever your local system won't need all that precessing power

I read that Cloud computing wont be out for awhile. There are too many bandwidth limitations going on atm. Look at Comcast it's a major corp. that is limiting their bandwidth they wont admit to it, but if you do Google searches and search for vid.s on Youtube you'll see that it's true and that Cloud wont happen for atleast another 5-10 years if not longer. If anyone gets cloud it'll more than likely be major businesses who are running commercial grade internet.

not for long the FCC is already working on a bandwidth standard as we speak they will decide in about 130 days. they are considering using the wimax system which can offer a very good bandwidth. the federal gov. is already about to start using the cloud system so I say in about 2 to 3 years it will go public. wimax connection can offer 5megs+ up and down so the cloud is not very far. might not be worldwide but maybe in the USA.

Hmmm I guess we will see either way looks very interesting sounds like Viki from iRobot... I only hope that the government doesn't spy on user privacy. That would suck if they could do that... no more pirating. :*(

Nobody spy our PCs, they try to close all pirates websites but as i saw without any luck Razz
