should i get 2gb or 4 GB?
CPU:intel core 3 extreme QX9650
MOBO: XFX nForce 790I ULTRA
PSU:silverstone 750W
GPU: Geforce 8800 GTX
OS: vista ultimate 32-bit, xp pro 32-bit!!!

p.S.: My opinion is the 2GB (2x 1GB) Ballistix(Crucial) PC16000 ddr3, 2000MHz!!!! IS that good or do you have other ideas!!!!

yeah, vista uses a lot of ram, but otherwise go for the 2gb

I need a compatible ram. Because i know/heard the xfx 790i Ultra is very picky about the memory!!!

Read this thread the links to the manufacturers are at the bottom.
IMPORTANT! Before You Buy Memory

The bottom line is use the memory manufacturers configurer it is the best way.
