How much memory should i get?

Ordered the X2 5000+ on Wednesday, and ordered the Turbo-Cool 1KW-CrossFire today. Still don’t know what kind of board I will purches. But how much memory should I get? 2gb or 4?

2gb because of 1t command.

2x 1gig sticks.

4gig is seen to be over kill, as nothing requires that much memory yet (well rarely).

2GB should be fine for everything that you can think of today.

x2 5000+? I wasn't aware it was released yet... it's rumoured it's being scrapped :confused:

Considering the fact that there is no such thing as an X2 4000 either....

Yes, its the upcoming X2 5000+ for socket am2

You can buy x2 5000s already?

I thought I heard somewhere that the new AM2 boards would support 4 sticks at 1T.

Never the less it will be a stonking machine, would you be considering folding ?
