I don't know about prices outside of europe but here you can get 2x4GB for 30€ now. In may it was still 55€. Thats of course just DDR3-...

Here's my dream HDD: OCZ Revodrive Basically it's a SSD that runs from your PCI-express port, therefore bypassing the bottleneck with ya SATA interface. Unfortunately only certian motherboards can boot from them and they cost twice as much as a normal SATA SSD.

Just a generic thread for new CPU news.... -=-=-=-=-=-=- Just when you thought 6 cores weren't enough...AMD unveils their 12core processor. LOL They cheated a bit, as it's 2 6core processors slapped together, but it still sounds impressive. Shame the benchmarks aren't as impressive though......
