This computer has 64GB of ram tested through a whole 4 hour pass of memtest86, and htop shows it using next to none of that RAM. I'll tell you what: If it weren't for the video, this would be a really kick ass machine. Its six cores map to 12 in htop and gkrellm. Running Chromium with several youtube movies playing uses up maybe 5%. On my current Daily Driver Desktop (DDD) such activities take about 70% of the CPU.
