    I'm going to go buy 2GB of Kingston Memory, + a Geforce 800 series

    or can that mobo handle 4GB?

    You will need a 64-bit OS for 4GB. Also you won't get a decent 8 series Nvidia card for the budget your on.

    If the RAM is in 4 x 1Gb modules it will use 3GB, if it is it 2 x 2GB modules it will only use 2GB. You can't use part of a module.
