I finally went through the entire thread and read every word. And dam do I look like a stupid idiot in some of my posts o.O Of course, no thanks to my college work load and other commitments >_>
I'll have a list of parts ready for comment and critique probably by late tonight or tomorrow. In the mean time, I have a few questions regarding RAM.
1.) According to some people, you should pay attention to whether the RAM is high density or low density, and avoid the former. Without actually buying the thing and trying it out, how can you tell which is which?
2.) How much does CAS latency affect memory speed? I found an apparently great deal on RAM, but its CAS latency is at the top end of the scale (9).
