You don't really need 16gb of RAM for gaming, with 8 it's just fine

For all you know, he could have a rendering hobby. Or maybe he already has all the games he want´s for now, and decided to get more ram with the money. Either way, more ram doesn´t hurt.

I disagree when i had 8gb ram other programs i ran along side my games would run slowly. Now I have 16gb it runs flawlessly

It´s a flippen 390. There ain´t better unless you go 980/Nano, and that´s like $150 more, not $30.

It’s funny because I’m going to spend most my time playing youtube videos and doing homework. Alls games I play is Starcraft 2. I’m going to be getting a RC flight sim, but thats about it. I may look into other PC racing games, but really, I just play Starcraft.

That's literally the same one, just G2 version?

 

What's the difference between GS, GX, and G2?

NEX is G1. FSP based, very sub par. G2 is superflower oem, stellar. GS is a seasonic oem. The one it´s based off isn´t their best, but it´s still quite good. GX I don´t have any info on.

So we’re Gucci?
