Inspector: i thought they had to be bought in a set of triple channel RAM
If you have four already, like lifeskills does then no, just buy two more. For stability's sake they should be just like what you already have.
If you plan to get RAM and don't have it, then a triple channel kit is the way to go. They usually sell for less in three's anyway.
Don't part with your illusions. When they are gone you may still exist, but you have ceased to live.
(Mark Twain)
ya, i was going to buy new ones either way because i wanted to have 6GB RAM in it and i currently only have 2 1GB sticks.
Evga is having a battlefield contest, where you just play atleast once and you're entered. If any one thinks they have a chance of winning that you might get the ram. lol
realneil:You need sets of three. and they should match. So if you buy two more sticks, just like the other ones, it should work fine. (that's what I would do)
Good to hear. RAM is so expensive.

You never know when it will be,.... early or later on in the day. Usually it's been later on and sometimes as late as in the wee hours of the next day. But last time it was on the last day, during the day.
Good luck to us all, and an early congratulations from me, to this time's winner!
You lucky, lucky Dog!

The winner would most likely be announced late in the day.(Pass the afternoon maybe?) It would be nice to have the winner as we wake up so the winner can have a cheerful day and not check in to HH every step you take...(Hope i don't trip this time ) lol
Today is my birthday all I want is this set up. I need a new Rig.
Come on HotHardware show me some love!!!!!!
lonewolf:Today is my birthday
Cool,....but my birthday is tomorrow!
realneil, you already got a full blown rig :D give us a chance :P lol
realneil:If I get lucky enough to win it, I'm gonna have to wait until November to build.
These ARE economically difficult times. I work for Ralphs Grocery Company, and our contract expires next week. If there is a strike or a lockout, both my wife and myself will be out of a paycheck. It would be very good if you guys could keep me and my family in your prayers! If I am fortunate enough to win this beautiful MSI mobo and graphics cards I would need to finish the build after the new contract is ratified...
SPAM-posters beware! ®
Even though I haven't been posting much in these forums recently and being occupied by a move I'm unhappy with. I still wish the winner all the best and I say to myself "It could of been me.".
