    Building a new computer, I'd like opinions on these parts :3

    RAM

    All the other parts/peripherals are things I already have and don't need to be upgraded to be compatible. I just thought it might be nice to get some opinions from a community who is more than likely very knowledgeable about this sort of thing. Would this computer be able to function more than adequately with all current and upcoming games on the highest settings?

    Helpful tip, list the products/product descriptions as well as the links, many people will want to help, but maybe don't have time or patience to go thrrough 4 or 5 links, just to find out what you want an opinion on.

    As far as the actual components go, your going to take some flak for using an AMD. So maybe tell us what you're planning to use the machine for. and what your total budget for these components is. As there will often be lots of things people can suggest that cost maybe a little more, but give you much better performance.

    I like everything you picked, except for the BRAND of your graphics card. HIS has been very bad to me as a customer, and many others when you have to make a return for defective parts. The main reason is you have to ship the part to china, and the people barely speak english. I am not stereotyping or being racist, go look on their website, under support, and read the FAQ. The lack of quality english will melt your face. I recommend an XFX of the same make, for 3 dollars more you get a credible company:
