    Should I buy RAM now?

    Hi All,

    Quick question. I will be looking to build a new Gaming PC at some point in the (reasonably) near future, and am thinking of going for an Intel build, rather then upgrading my AMD rig. I am probably gonna go i7, and my question is, should I buy some RAM now, seeing as prices are pretty low? And if so, what? I'm not really working to a budget ATM, as I haven't sat down and worled it out, but don't want to pay more for the RAM later on down the road.

    What does everyone think?
