Hi guys - need some advice:

19" Asus Flatscreen Monitor

Intel C2D E6600
Asus P5K Mobo
3Gigs of Corsair DDR2 XMS2-6400C5 TwinX (3x1GB)
ATi Radeon 4870 512 and ive clocked the nuts off it.

Go on it looks lovely in that shiny black....

started me looking at monitors, got a single 22" now but seen people with 2 or 3 in the gallery and looks smart...

4gb (2x2gb) of memory so you'll actually be running your memory in dual channel mode?
