Hi there /g/

I'm sure you remember this pic, although it's outdated I decided I would try use it as a basis for replacing my current computer. However before I go and replace it I was hoping to get some things cleared up.

1. Given that this is a year old, how badly outdated is the hardware mentioned in the guide? Is what was considered "great" back then barely adequate now or is it holding up well?

2. After having a look at one of the motherboards in the guide I found that it said "DDR3 1866(OC)/1333/1066" under memory standard, however the recommended RAM to go with it was 1600. Am I missing something? It seems like the motherboard wouldn't support that type of RAM.

Sorry if the questions are retarded. Hardware was never my strong suit.
