I'm covered. :D Oh yeah! Was looking at some DDR3 memory & may end up with 2 8GB sticks for around $70 on payday. Paid over $100 for the 2 sticks of 4 GB I've been running for years. Just wondering if my main system will be able to have enough memory to hurt me when I do something stupid. ;) SD> matching pretty well. There's almost no trees on the property I'm on SD> right now so everything has to be a low-altitude sloper. Seen some who use the wire Slinky's. Got nice tuners on them...but at 90 degrees running behind their house/fence to not take up much backyard space...would be nice.
