MY QUESTIONS:
1. Will the motherboard have enough slots for the x3 2GB? Should I be sticking with x2 2GB or upgrade to x2 4GB?
2. The EVO crafted series case seems to come with at least 3 case fans, does this mean I will not have to purchase extras for the case?
3. Do you see anything that is not compatible?
4. Is there anything that seems unnecessary price wise (in other words, could I downgrade anything and still see good results)
Thanks in Advance!
