    What would be a good computer for ripping/burning DVD? Should I waste more with RAM or what?

    Knowing what you've got might help.

    Read the DVD Ripping Speed Tips sticky in the DVD to DVDR forum for advice on gaining good ripping speeds. It does not really matter what machine you have for burning these days. Encoding/Transcoding is heavily CPU-based, but lots of RAM does help.
    If in doubt, Google it.

    "What would be a good computer for ripping/burning DVD?"
    Well, that is a very general question with many answers. Having a computer with a dvd burner is a start. And as jimmalenko stated "Encoding/Transcoding is heavily CPU-based".

    "Should I waste more with RAM or what?"
    Maybe you can start by telling us how much ram do you currently have. And while you are at it fill out the rest of your computer details. It will allow us to better help you in the future.

    Why don't you fill in your Computer Details in your profile ?

    We can't see your computer from here
    If in doubt, Google it.

    I think the only thing you need is a LiteOn DVD-ROM and you'll have one heck of a machine.
    If in doubt, Google it.

    And while you are in your computer, you may want to throw in another hard drive.
