Corsair's Gareth Ogden takes a look at how to get the most out of a system by exploiting the advantages of 8GB of memory. Corsair Application Note AN902
I think 6GB of DDR3 along with a nice i7 920 will do me just fine. In fact, it will probably be more than enough. 8GB is tempting though
Was one stick of RAM removed for the 4GB tests? If so the remaining memory would have been running in single channel mode, or was a 2x2GB kit used?
i think they used 2x2gb vs 2x4gb.. well they did with 2gb vs 4gb last time. I need moar ram lol, think i'll go with 2x2 + 2gb so 6gb in total
