| That's going to be a win system, but you need to run vista. Too bad you didn't put Solid State Disks in it, because you probably could have with your budget. What are you going to do with it? |

It would have made it a ton faster, but those Velociraptors are blazing fast, I'm running a 74 Gig right now. Wish I could get those really expensive ones, but I'm a cheap computer nerd :) |

| Ok so I was talking about it with a friend. basically I plan to use ProTools, so I'm gonna keep the 32 bit OS because the program doesn't work with any 64 bit OSs. Anyway I guess I'll have to wait to get the full benefits of the memory. |

| Uh so with a 32bit OS you'll only be able to use 3GB RAM (4GB minus memory allocations from GFX etc). That's 50% of what you have. :o |

| Yea I know but pro tools doesn't run on a 64 bit os so the 6 gigs of ram will have to wait to fully be exploited. |
