couldn't agree more ... but this is from somebody who has 1Gb of RAM in a 5.6GHz machine :oops:

5.6ghz, overclocking?

Anyway, there's no relation between your processor speed and the amount of RAM you need.
1gb should be fine, but 2gb would be absolutely excellent.

I've bought 2 GB RAM (2 x 1 GB, 400 MHz DDR2) for my PC, and there's definitely an improvement in speed, especially when using Photshop or similar softwares. Thanks for the help, guys. :)

Yeah, once I got another Gb of RAM, I couldn't believe the difference in speed.

Dual processors or dual core?
If it's the latter, it isn't two processors, or double the speed.
Have you got a dual core Pentium D or something?

Never heard of tandem processoring in commercial computers.

that and i ordered it with them

All processors generate a hell of an amount of heat.

That said, I want some, where did you get it from?

You have a beast of a computer.

Still, with the money you spent on a Dell, you could have gotten a monstrously powerful custom PC for a fraction of the price.
