    Mostly going to use the computer for Battlefield 2 & 3 as well as Starcraft 2 and Ultima Online:Renassiance. Who knows may even try that new Skyrim, anyways also use the computer for watching dvds and surfing web that's about it. I usually have AIM, and music loaded at the same time, so could always use the extra RAM as well. Anyways in a dilemma out of which build I should go with:

    GTX 560 ti 2048mb (or) gtx 560 ti 1028mb ?? (not sure the difference)
    with 16gb ram & still have 50$ish to or (maybe 24gb ram?)

    or

    GTX 570 1024mb superclocked
    with 8gb ram

    Any advice would be appreciated, not sure how much of a difference it woudd be..

    Currently Have:
    EVGA 131-GT-E767-TR LGA1366/ Intel X58/ DDR3/ CrossFireX & 2-Way/3-Way SLI/ SATA3&USB3.0/ A&GbE/ ATX Motherboard


    if that helps...

    What CPU do you have, how much and what speed RAM do you have? What are you using for your GPU?

    Well you don't really need anything over 8GB of RAM, but if you wanted to get another 4GB of the same stuff that would work. As for the GPU I would get the GTX 570.
