GPU/s - 2 x GTX 680 Sig II in SLi

Chassis - Cosmos 2
SSD - Neutron GTX 240gb

So Heres The Toss Up - 16GB of 2133 Platinum with almost free light bar upgrade kits and free shipping - $274.97 or

Also I am using this rig for gamin but i wouldnt mind being able to do some rendering , editing etc

16GB is more than enough for some rendering, editing etc.
I'd just grab the the 16GB kit with the higher speeds, however I do think that Dom Plats are kinda overpriced

^^^as above.


only addition I would make is the dom plats are all about the looks. Thats what you pay extra for....

 

[CPMFW]

definitely go for 16gb... its more than enough

 

[airdeano]

Not sure if you disable your paging file but remember ; if you are running an SSD and have it enabled you will lose a total memory sized chunk of your hard drive space.

It would only really matter on say a 120gb ssd but just figured I would point it out

Like every one else I would say that 16gb is more than enough.
