One hell of a pc. People like me can only sigh, when this kind of specs are seen in a pc. One thing though, there's 32 GB of Ram in your computer, but will the operating system ever be able to use all of this? One of my friend had 4gb ram, and his Windows 7 only used 2 of it, the rest was used from the graphics card, if I recall it correctly.

depends what you do on the pc i guess, i recently had 4 (1gb) sticks of ram fail () and was using 2x1gb as a temp solution. i played a bunch of games etc and never really had any problems.

i've just gone back to 4gb and all i'm doing is browsing and windows is currently using 1.5gb. windows does a decent job, if there is spare memory it will use it, if it's short then it will hammer the crap out of the pagefile.. which i have on a seperate drive so i hardly notice it being used.

if i had 32gb then i'd have no page file - so everything is loaded into the ram, it's a perfect solution. would be tempted to play around with software ram drives also. other than that it's great for media work and virtual machines.
