Okay, so a couple of months ago, I packed my PC up to go into storage before moving house. During which, I opened it up to get rid of some dust since it had been a while since I last did so.

You can always buy some. ;)

You would have to buy PowerDVD Ultra or Total Media Theatre, though.

Okey Dokey.

If I really feel the need for more RAM I guess I'll buy another 2GB stick and have 8GB... assuming that the current 2GB is the same as the kit.

Thanks for the help.

Hey,

I currently only have 2GB of 667MHz DDR2 RAM installed in my PC, and I am beginning to find that it is limiting me too much in what I can do.

So, I just bought a 2x2GB 4GB kit... Is it...

I agree. They should have said explicitly that it wasn't Wii U footage. Though, honestly, you could almost tell it wasn't. None of it looked nearly as impressive as the actual Wii U footage.

That's not true. That footage wasn't to show how capable the Wii U was, they'd already done that with the demo of the bird in the garden, which was very impressive. Better than 360 and PS3. We'd also...

My 4850 and Q6600 should handle it fine then... I'll have to check it out if there's a demo released.
