too much RAM?
I plan on ordering Studio XPS 16 with a 1 GB NVIDEA video card.
I originally chose 4M RAM and not 6M (as recommended be Dell).
A computer site advised that for 64 bit Windows (I am waiting for Windows 7 to come with the computer in a week or so), anything above 4 MB would be a waste.
Is there an exception here? Should I stick with 4 MB, especially if the video card has 1 GB associated with it?

If the price difference is not that much and you are planning on using apps like sound and video editing software then putting the most ram into system is a good idea.
I run 8 gigs in my 720 and when I am editing vidoes It uses all the available ram.
If all you are planning on doing is email browsing then it migh be a waste. Most Games do not take full advantage of all the system ram but some of the newer ones will.
