My main question is about the RAM, this is mainly a rig to run zBrush with minimum stutter but obviously I'll game on top of that - apparently zBrush is a hog for RAM so I thought i'd go for 16GB, however would money be better spent on less GB with a lower latency or does it not really make that much difference anymore? cheers for your input _________________ de_dolls Left 4 Sculpture http://phantasmagonorrhea.tumblr.com/
