    Help with monitor selection for computer build

    I Need Advice

    MadamSpunk, First and foremost a system can never be worse off with adding additional Ram, however, this needs to be countered with the fact that you are not going to get the same performance out of onboard graphics as you would a added video card, no matter how much ram you add. A few...
