4gb vs 8gb on sandybridge, will max overclocks be limited?

get 8, on win7/vista it feels nicer, and if you are doing lots of stuff then its much faster not like it costs lots. if your on a budget though then spend monies on cpu/gpu

I was going to stick to 4gb til I read the end of the article:

'In a 64-bit system with a powerful graphics card, 8 GB of RAM really is a must if you're going to play demanding games. This is the case regardless of whether you're using 32-bit or 64-bit applications. '

Not sure now, though 8GB of Geil wouldn't exactly be breaking the bank!

as I said, its def worth it if you can afford it. But if getting 8gb of ram meant you had to get a much worse cpu/gpu then id wait and get the ram at a later date, just buy a single 4gb stick now. but if it wont be a problem then GO GO GO!
