Be sure to test your PC on a peer to peer build for RAM! XO mine only had 4GB. WTF dude!?

Just what my guest PC needed. The 4GB (what the heck?!) of RAM that a minimal gaming rig had was insufficient to run anything other than Chrome (laughs), plus it was the bottleneck for the AMD FX6530 + GTX 970 combo. Simple Installation. Remove old RAM, install new RAM! Check your BIOS settings. Make sure you don't just upgrade the existing RAM, as this will cause additional work and problems. Buy kits as needed and change them all at once with the same type of RAM. :DNext minor update, improved AM3+ processor Next major update: Intel i7 processor with brand new motherboard and liquid cooling. :D I'll just switch my current setup to this when I update mine.

Pros
  • Brilliantly made
Cons
  • Style 90
