"I need more RAM!" he said, and ordered 8 Gigabytes. But alas, when it arrived, and he installed, the system did not POST. Now our hero is on a quest, a quest to find the best... on his Multiple RAM Adventures!
    Cue dramatic music.

    Re: Which Intel CPU

    You have to do a lot to need more than 4GB as long as you use Win7. If you use Vista 64-bit, it's easy to go over.
