Just kind of weird that you're paying the extra for Socket 939 then not taking advantage of it by using dual channel RAM.

This is missing a case and monitor but contains all the Major Components, there is no OS in with this. This System Will KICK ASS in games and most applications you run on it, the grapfics and mobo are SLi capable so you can add another card to this latter for later speed increases when you have more money.
