None of that sounds particularly memory-intensive, but hey.

No, since I don't have money to burn (but did want to play) so I'm in
consumer-grade space (k8v, 1G, amd64 3200+). For that, comptechworld.nl is
my "huisleverancier", although they are more expensive than the
rock-bottom stuff you can get now (computerland.nl sells a msi neo + cpu
for E350). switch.nl will sell you just about anything if you ask :) They
got a collegue of mine an sk8n w/ 4G (of which the BIOS apparently only
sees 3.5 G - very odd). That was around E2000 for the full system. For big
dually boxes, I really don't know whether post-order parts stores (even if
they will assemble for you) will cut it. CTW was willing to custom-build a
dual athlon MP w/4G back in the day that that was da bong, though.
