96 of Ram? wow that makes me feel better. But i guess i am going to save money and buy a custom pc for games. i am thinking with a budget bellow 1000 buks ( Alien Ware? )

*i want to know, my friend has a computer that had a 96mb ram stick... how is this possible!?!

It's possible because he has an onboard video card that is set to reserve 32mb of system ram out of a total of 128mb for it's onboard video memory, thus he loses those mbs in effective and measured system ram.

Alienware is just a bunch of parts assembled and they charge double.

Buy a DFI, Epox, Abit or Asus mainboard based on an nForce4 SLI, nForce4 Ultra, nForce4 or nForce4 4X chipset, then fit a 3700+ San Diego or an X2 4400+ to it...... with 7800GT or GTX graphics card and 2gb of PC4000 RAM.

The rest is details. You can skimp and go 2 x 512mb ram modules if you want, but if you skimp on the other stuff.......

Ok, i will check it out, well i can only put one more RAM stick on my laptop ( or is it posible to take out the one that is already there and put 2 512 Mb Ram sticks in? ) well i am going to BBY* when i can.

*Best Buy

You can take out the current one you have in there and replace it. If I were you I would go to newegg.com and not BB. Also I would suggest looking at corsair XMS notebook. I have that in my lappy, and runs almost as good as my desktop.
