    @kagekage:
    They're not as expensive as you might think. You could build a pretty comparable rig to the majority of ones in this thread for about $500, if that.

    I built this computer myself from parts I got off of Newegg. 
     

    Processor: AMD Phenom II X4 940 (4 CPUs), ~3.0GHz
    Memory: 4096MB RAM
    Hard Drive: 500 GB
    Video Card: HIS ATI Radeon HD 4870 Series
    Speakers/Headphones: Triton AX360 5.1 headphones
    Keyboard: Z Board
    Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit (6.1, Build 7600) (7600.win7_rtm.090713-1255)
    Motherboard: ASUS M3A78 AM2+/AM2 AMD 770 ATX AMD
    Computer Case: Rosewill R5604-BK 0.8mm Japanese Cold Rolled Steel Dual 120mm Fans Screw-Less design ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
     It's a pretty good computer that can play pretty much anything at max settings (except for Empire Total War, that game never wants to run well).

    8Gbs of DDR2? Woah, I've never put into any systems I've built more than 6GBs of RAM. "
    RAM is so cheap these days, you almost can't afford the hassle of not having enough when it comes down to it. My T5140 has 32GB of RAM (it'll hold up to 128gb) and my mac pro has 16gb (it'll hold up to 32gb). If you were stuck using windows, I couldn't imagine running it (along with a full system of applications and games and everything else) on less than 6gb or preferably 8gb.  Of course, that's nothing compared to my first computer -- the VIC-20 which would hold (if you had the cash for it, which I didn't) as much as a whopping 64KB! If I recall it shipped with 5KB or 10KB. Ooooh! :) "
    That's a humongous overkill considering few, if not any, applications use up 32gbs of RAM. But if you're an computer/tech enthusiast then I'll leave the big boys' stuff to the big boys and play with my toy rigs. :) "
    If you're doing a lot of media editing, 16 or 32gb is definitely not too much and can all be beneficial. Or in my particular case, compiling very large code bases while using a central machine to run multiple linux and solaris guest OS environments for some very basic testing or running XEN environments on the solaris box to reproduce actual full customer deployment environments (entire LDAP deployments, Identity deployments, communications deployments, etc) for debugging without having to have multiple physical machines.   Even just running VMWare on a machine can eat up a ton of memory. Let's say you run a linux guest and maybe a windows guest. And lets say you allocate 2gb to each system. Well, there's 4gb right there. Plus whatever you allocate for the virtual video cards. And whatever your actual host OS requires. It can add up. Still, for gaming and such... using Vista or Windows 7 . . . I can't imagine using anything less than say 6gb or 8gb. Considering how cheap RAM is and mobos hold a lot of ram these days, it truly is worth jamming them full of as much as you can (though 16gb is probably way overkill, granted...!).  Hell, I keep pushing for more RAM on my T5140 as when I'm dealing with large data sets (in the hundreds of gigabytes), 32gb is actually a hinderance and can involve a ton of paging. One of these days my expense request will go through (since we make the damn things, after all.... argh!). "
    As I'm not gaming with vista nor 7 xp with 4gbs is quite enough(building a Win 7 machine before christmas, could ram it with 8gbs of ram(hurr durr I made a funny)). Sure, I could jam my mobos up with RAM, but I'm a cheap ass and try not to spend too much if I don't seem to gain anything from it. But in your situation I can see why you have 32gbs of RAM.

    Processor:
    AMD X2-7750 Black
    Memory:
    4GB Corsair DDR2-800

    Video Card:
    512MB Sapphire Radeon 4830
    Monitor:
    21.5" Dell SX2210
    Sound Card:
    Realtek crap (okay, it's not so terrible)
    Speakers/Headphones:
    Klipsch ProMedia 4.1s, Koss Pros   
    Keyboard:
    Logitech G15 (2nd gen)
    Mouse:
    Logitech G5
    Operating System:
    Windows 7  Professional 64 Bit    
        
    This one barely counts (and the previous one was a $500 budget rig): 
    MotherBoard:
    No idea
    Processor:
    Dual-core Atom 330
    Memory:
    4GB Corsair DDR2-800   
    Hard Drive:
    500GB Hitachi

    Why does the crappy computer have a better monitor? It has a VESA mount, the Dell doesn't. The Dell also looks better - far higher contrast ratio, lower response time, and a webcam to capture me tugging my privates after scoring kills.

    4GB RAM 
    1TB HDD 
    Intel Core 2 Duo 2.8GHz Extreme 
     
    Surprisingly, this machine can run most games at the highest settings in 720p withOUT AA.  I run Modern Warfare 2 around 40fps with highest settings and no anti-aliasing.  I'm DEFINITELY building myself a new rig at the end of 2010, just in time for Brink.
