The issue is that it's impossible to compare a console with a pc spec for spec.

Consoles are utilised a lot differently and are meant to last for a couple of years frozen with it's specs. Your rig as it stands as a gaming PC is very good.

Aww man hehe. Well gave it a shot anyway.

I kinda guessed you were gonna say that.

can anyone tell me whats better, DDR2 or DDR3? I was told ddr3 isnt very good but not given a reason.

DDR3 is faster but arguably not fast enough for it to be noticeable. At present it's not worth adopting yet.
