4 gb ram

[FilipePT]

I'll assemble a desktop soon.

I was wondering if with 4gb ram DDR3 1600 will only have problems?

For now so I can put 4GB in the future or put another stick of 4GB.

The desktop will be

MB: Asus M5A78L-M/USB3

AMD FX 6300 3.5GHz

4GB DDR3 Kingstone HyperBlu 1600Hz

MSI Gaming R9 270

Corsair CX 500

OS: Windows 7 64-bit

Not sure what you plan on using this PC for but I wouldn't put less than 8gb of ram into a new build...

1. You'll be using a 64-bit operating system which can and will take advantage of more than 4GB of RAM
2. RAM is so cheap these days there is no reason not to get an 8GB kit (2 sticks of 4GB each.)

Whether or not it makes sense to go with 4GB now depends on your intended use, budget, and other factors.

Ram has almost doubled in price in the last year so I wouldn't say load up globs of it but I would say 8GB is adequate for most anything the common user or gamer will need. I would go with 8GB too.
