Hey all

I have seen in a few threads recently, people recommending upgrading their system RAM to a higher amount to allow some of the higher memory graphics cards (6gb GPUs for example) to run without being 'bottlenecked'.

I have 8gb of system ram (4x2gb) and no slots left. Have I got the wrong end of the stick here or will this be a problem being stuck on 8gb system ram when I grab myself one of the upcoming graphics cards (6 or 8gb or whatever they may be).

Forgive my ignorance.

TL;DR Should I grab 16gb of DDR3 while it is still reasonable in advance of getting a video card with a high amount of vRAM?
