So I had carts setup on several websites while I was waiting to finally buy everything for my first build and before I bought RAM from OutletPC I noticed Newegg had a sale so I jumped on it and then the next day I had enough for most of the other things and went ahead and bought my stuff from Outlet PC. I had forgotten that I already had RAM in that cart. So now I have more RAM than I intended. Is there enough of a reason to go ahead and keep both purchases or should I really go through the trouble of returning it to OutletPC? Will I even get a use out of this much RAM?
My build if I keep all the RAM
