I think you have a great pc, BUT. It is complete over kill. 16gb DDr3 won't be needed for years to come, and when it is needed, DDR4, or even 5 will be out, and then you won't want DDR3 anymore. i7 is a good choice. I didn't see your PSU anywhere? Other then that, nice computer. No no, AMAZING computer.

Thanks!! Well I do a lot of Photoshop and Premiere work and they said that those products use all the RAM you throw at it

Sorry! PSU is the:

Stock Shuttle 500w Bronze PSU
Stock Shuttle Motherboard

Well whom ever told you that, just said it so you spend more money on ram, that is not needed at all. But you won't need to upgrade for years to come tho
That PSU... I see problems down the road. 500W is bad for such a computer. You would need at least 600, 650 to be safe. But I'm jealous, such n awesome computer, Good luck.

Hi niceties55

Windows 7 64bit would be better for gaming and I use CS5 in 7

 

[niceties55]

All Built and works AMAZING and it is tiny!

So then, did you still use 16gb of ram? And I'm very happy you like your computer. Wish best of luck it stays that way

 

[niceties55]

Yep I still did, because I ordered it a while ago(got it all as cheap as I can get) so too late to return (but still 70 for 16gig isn't bad) and running some sweet stuff on it and it's doing well

Very good! Very balanced for programs that you want.
