[QUOTE="LensWork, post: 123564, member: 1283"] I actually have 24GB, but that choice was not in the poll, so I selected 16GB. I purchased a new image editing computer in December: Dell XPS 8500 Intel Core i5 3rd Gen 3.1GHz 24GB RAM 128GB mSATA SSD drive for O/S and programs 2 - 2TB 7200RPM HDD in RAID 0 for storage Windows 8 Pro 64-bit The XPS came with 8GB RAM, Windows 8 Home and 1 - 2TB HDD for $535 + tax. I added 16GB RAM, the mSATA drive, 2nd 2TB HDD and upgraded the O/S to Pro all for less than $400, so for less than $1,000 total I now have a smoking fast computer that should serve me well for some time. Opening 74MB D800 RAW files with this system using Nikon Capture NX2 is instaneous; no waiting while "processing image" anymore like my old system. [/QUOTE]
