only 50 bucks for 2-4Gb...

Where do you live? Saw some go on sale yesterday for 16gb for 60 dollars

lol yuuki, I have a SSD and my internet I can download from Steam at 10 mbps... That's not the Issue, when you have a limited supply of RAM and most of it is being taken up by your OS, it seriously bottlenecks how fast your computer is going to load things. You could be rocking the fastest i7 chip with SLi gtx 690's loading everything off flash memory, and only have 2g's of ram and I guarantee you that a subpar system with 8gig's with outrun it in loading. Most of the speed comes from the RAM

edit*misspelled a word so terribly I couldn't stand myself

And I thought my 4mb/s was good :o

Haha yeah just today when I was doing the update from last week I did 7mbps for like 5 seconds and it was done. I downloaded the Indiana Jones trilogy in like an hour. Feels good
