PEOPLE, STOP RECOMMENDING 4-8 GIGS OF RAM!!! The i7 works best in units of 3, so 3, 6, 9, or 12 gigs of ram would work best. Get a cheap i7 920 and a nice motherboard and overclock the hell out of it. It has 4 cores and 4 virtual cores, so its basally 8 threaded, and if you get it up to 4 ghz (I heard its pretty easy)…
