At the moment I am running 2 Kingston's with 2048 MB each but I have a 64 bit quad and want to upgrade my memory so I can run some of these new games that's out now. What would you advise and what is the best cards out there! Money is a consideration with this so keep that in mind!

Before spending the money on memory I always Google the mother board to find Compatible Memory. This ensures the memory you purchase will work. Just food for thought.....If you want to post what mother board I can do some searching for you...

Dean, I've got two 2GB PC3-10600 DDR3 1333 crucial memory chips (4GB in total) that I don't use. PM me if they are the kind you need, they are yours.

Cheers

Joe

I put G.Skill memory in my box:

16gb is overkill but the price was right at the time; you can get two of the 4gb sticks for less than $50 at newegg right now. Solid memory.

Depends on the mother board your running not the processor, what are the specs on your motherboard can it even handle 8 gigs, if so your really not going to notice that much of a differance because the computer is only going to use what it needs at the time, kingston is a good brand for the money, hope this helps
