So it will make me lose performance? It was free so its no big deal unless it really degrades performance that bad. Should I seriously go to a 8G?

[QUOTE="Xerxcuss"]Ok so no one seemed to notice that the ASUS motherboard is not compatible with Nvida cards.... Makes me question your knowledge as that was a simple test. I Actually have Crossfired dual amd 6790 1gb cards. Why would I decrease my Ram to 8G instead of having 16? Also I added a 120G SSD as my primary hardrive. FUS RO DAH!GummiRaccoon

Did you miss the part that everyone called your setup stupid?

Cool story bro.

Because everyone has the time to know every mobo and what it supports.

It was only a test to see who knows what they are doing. I did say I was looking for "Expert" advice. I ment no insult

Yeah I noticed that. They also are one minded. I actually dont have the 550s, that was a test to see if anyone knew anything about specs. I actually have Dual Crossfired amd 6790 1gb. Im sure thats better than a 550 SLI.

Yes Blistrax, It is in SLI. I also looked at the benchmarks and those resolutions are extremely high. No need for the size monitor I will have.

Ah thanks, though Im not looking to run the games at very high resolutions. As far as I can tell from various sites and there benchmarks, that I can play these games at high- ultra settings at ~yes lower resolutions. However I do plan to upgrade my graphics card. I only choose the 550 Dual because of the deal I got. Let me tell you want my goal is, this might make answers and advice easier. I'm not looking for supreme resolution nor necessarily ultra graphics but a decent resolution and high and if possible ultra settings. What graphics card should I upgrade to with my current configuration? Lets say I have a budget of $500.

I'm ordering a gaming computer that I hope will have good specs to play most games on ultra quality optimal. The Specs: Processor (AMD A8-3870K APU (4x 3.00GHz/4MB L2 Cache)) Processor Cooling (Asetek 550LC Liquid CPU Cooling System (AMD) - ARC Dual Silent High Performance Fan Upgrade (Push-Pull Airflow Memory (16 GB [4 GB X4] DDR3-1600 Memory Module Video Card (NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti - 1GB - SLI Mode (Dual Cards))) Video Card Brand (=== High Performance === EVGA Brand Video Cards [SLI enabled] Powered by NVIDIA)) Motherboard ([CrossFire] ASUS F1A75-V PRO) Primary Hard Drive (1 TB HARD DRIVE -- 32M Cache, 7200 RPM, 6.0Gb/s - Single Drive)) Sound Card (Creative Labs Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio) Operating System (Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium + Office Starter 2010 (Includes basic versions of Word and Excel) - 64-Bit Case (CoolerMaster HAF 932 Advanced Full Tower Gaming Case - Black As far as I am told by The site which I bought the computer from as well as a friend of mine who builds computers, that this is easily enough to play games (Such as Battlefield 3, Skyrim, Cyrsis 2-with a little strain ect.) On ultra settings keeping the FPS above 60. So I just wanted advice from some experts. I look forward from hearing from you all. (Keep the gaming fist strong)
