    Hello there, I am still running configurations for a new gaming PC I was confident I had the information I needed until now.

    2gb and 4gb RAM

    I would honestly recommend replacing both sticks with a 4GB each (so, 2 x 4GB). 8GB is becoming the new standard for gaming computers, and atleast then you won't have to take the PC apart twice if and when you need to upgrade it again. If you can afford it, I would most definitely recommend...

    Gaming Build for Sister

    Id suggest going with a 7790 as well, as I try to buy graphics cards slightly above what I need to prevent upgrade fatigue in the future. Buying a 7790 will have you set for a while, especially seeing the games you plan to play. Go ahead and search a few cards in question on Toms site, they have...
