Look at the second review, all you have to do to get it to work is to bump up the vdimm voltage a little bit, it's really not hard. I'm sure someone else will find some better ram.

I'm 14.. I havn't taken any computer classes yet

My parents = no clue
Closest family member who could help = across the country
Personal Experience = none..


Building this is going to be a challenge all ready.. the least over clocking/voltage upping/ect... the better

Trust me, you'll be glad to wait, for the price drop if nothing else. It's beyond easy, if you need help we can walk you through it.

hmm ok...

It sounds reasonable to wait sense the combo (ram/cpu/mobo) should be about the same price as what I have but much better...
That part is settled

But.. about the price drop.. how possitve are you guys - any sources?

Price is going to drop basically in half if you wait a month.
