My video card is exactly 512 MB otherwise I am way passed the minimum requirements, will I still be able to run it without lag? (My video card is a Sapphire Radeon 5670 512MB DDR5, Link Removed sorry about shortened link, normal link is really big)
I started minecraft getting ready to log in but then it shut off and created a .txt file named hs_err_pid3212. I did not open it yet.

You should buy 2 of those 4GB sticks (they are not cards, you call them sticks, modules or DIMMs). You should not try to buy 6GB of RAM to install into an AMD system. It would mean buying 2 x 2GB and 2 x 1GB modules. That would be a bit silly.
Always pair up RAM in an AMD system. It enables RAM to be used in dual-channel mode (makes things faster).
Also, are you certain you require that fancy CPU cooler? AMD's supplied cooler is perfectly adequate.
If you remove the sound card, Zalman cooler and DVD burner, you would probably be able to afford a GTX 560 or 570 instead of the 550.(???)
So your saying I should buy 2 of the 4GB sticks, and remove the CPU cooler... I got a bit confused on the last sentence. I was planning on buying 2 of the 4GB sticks if that's what you meant.
EDIT: if I remove the sound card will the motherboard have on-board sound, if that's how you say it. Also if that's what you meant.. I thought on-board sound wasn't that good.
I decided to finally build a computer, I will be ordering these parts for my computer. But first I thought I should ask some other people if they are good or not, since I am very new to building computers.

So your saying I should buy 2 of the 4GB sticks, and remove the CPU cooler...
I got a bit confused on the last sentence. I was planning on buying 2 of the 4GB sticks if that's what you meant.EDIT: if I remove the sound card will the motherboard have on-board sound, if that's how you say it. Also if that's what you meant.. I thought on-board sound wasn't that good.

Would getting 2 RAM cards be possible or would it just be easier to get one 6GB RAM card?
