I Have G-Skill ram myself, and when i received them i was amazed at how good they looked, the best looking item in my computer by far lol. No difference bro, although i would recommend getting 1066mhz ram, if you really want one of these, get the 2x2GB. Also, if you are going to game you need to get dual, not quad cores. They overclock better, have higher stock speeds, and cost less. 4x cores is probably only optimal for some mega multitasking. For 60 dollars less, i got a 6750, OCed from 2.66 to 3.8, higher than you could ever go with a quad core on stock cooling. Also for the GTS get the EVGA, they have a step up program, and usually the highest fps on their cards. With the step up program, in anywhere under 3 months, you could step up to a 9800gx2 or gtx, or whatever you want, get FULL VALUE on MSRP trade in whenever you purchase your next GPU. Just some recommendations. My G92 will be here in a few days.
