| Epoch said: Good HDD, not sure why you chose 6GB of RAM when you could get 8GB for about the same price. |
The Core i7 9xx CPUs use triple-channel memory so you buy in multiples of 3GB: 3GB, 6GB or 12GB.
Sandy Bridge is still 2, 4, 8GB though.

Sandy Bridge gives about 30% more performance at the same price, due to higher clockspeeds and greater IPC. It also uses less power.
