    Since the recent price raise of the G71GX-RX05 I've decided to go with the G51VX-X1A(newegg is better anyway). I'd like to up the Ram in the G51. What type of Ram does it take? Can anyone suggest a good brand/link me to ram that will work in it? I'd like 6 Gigs of Ram and since it only has 2 ram slots I think I'd have to go with 2x3 Gb sticks

    Do they have 3Gb sticks?? I think you might have to do 1x4Gb and 1x2Gb, unless you just wanted to go ahead and get 8Gb.
