Quote - Yeah, I am running Win 7 64bit so it should handle 32GB fine.  I guess I will bite the bullet now and go for the extra RAM.

I'm on the Nvidia boat, too. Tough to top those fast processors and ddr5 on-board! The graphics card, at least for rendering purposes, is kind of the bottleneck if you're planning on doing some hardcore renders. Yes, GPU is great when it works, but I'm still biting my thumb for a proper cpu+gpu hybrid version of lux. 32GB will be plenty unless you're planning on doing animations, but in that event, RAM won't be the limiter near as much as your core count. I'm seriously thinking its time to get a couple bare bones units and make a home renderfarm. Hmm... 24 cores?
