Welcome to the forums! If in fact you do have that computer, it is a BEAST! I just have one question, with a budget like yours (I am guessing a big one), why get 4 sticks of 512 ram?

Because its an alienware you don't decide the exact parts that go in, you just say you want 2GB, so they give you 4x 512MB sticks

Yeah I didn't want to be the one saying it. You could build that rig for 1/2 of what you paid..
