A better question would be how do you survive on 4GB of ram? My computer damn near idles at 4GB of ram.. Okay, maybe not, but ram is so cheap nowadays you should at least get 4 more gigs!

Back on topic, I'm glad you went with the 3570k I've heard some great things about IB and also heard that it beats the 2500k for basically the same price

yeah get 8GB of RAM if you can. 6GB is barely enough these days.

I remember back in college when 4GB was overkill already... LOL.
