Finally got my desktop back today, moved about 750 miles southwest (MD to TN) a month and a half ago, had to use my crappy broken 5 year old hp laptop since, and finally got my desktop back today.

PRAISE GABEN!

32gbs of ram with an i5??!?!?!?!?!?!

Your system seems just a little unbalanced as people above have pointed out...

 

Used to host a game server because I had good internet :P, this was back a year ago when I was a PC noob and was like I NEED MOAR RAM

 

 

maybe he likes to use ramdisk

I've been tempted to set aside like 5gb for windows and see boot time, with the 840 pro it isn't a problem though :P

 

 

Hey I needed to wait for RAM to show up for my computer because i Sold my other computer that needed RAM... Like 2 weeks with out any computer.

Yes it is painful

 

 

What were your laptop specs?

The CPU wasn't bad, a i7 970 I believe, however the screen is a TN 1366x768 15.6 which sucked, the trackpad is broken, the battery doesn't work so it has to be plugged in to charger at all times, GT 230M which wasn't terrible for web browsing, but gaming is out of the question, I used my SSD in the laptop so it was a bit speedy

Ah, it shouldn't require 32 gb though, I'll bet 16 would have worked fine. :P

So basically, typical HP.
