I was looking at NCIX and Memory Express, but I was having too much of a hard time trying to match up the components to the build I made in Newegg. I just don't know this new stuff enough to be able to comfortably interchange them.

In the end, all I wanted was a system that could handle games like Team Fortress 2, Left 4 Dead 2, and Mass Effect 2, handle all the media I threw at it, some USB 3.0 and something that is somewhat easy to update in 2-3 years when I do my next upgrade

I've been living off a laptop with XP and an internal video card for over 3 years now
