how?

thx a lot.

I'm going to run Windows 7 Ultimate Edition version 7600

how do you make a partition? And what do you mean by applications?

So I'm gonna be building my own pc, for the first time, and I'm only going to use one Hard drive, WD Cavalier Black 500gb. Now I've noticed that a lot of ppl use 2 drives, one drive for OS and the other as storage. Why do ppl do that? I'm already a bit over my budget so I'm not sure if a second...

Thank you for all the help Rockyjohn.

as of now, yea I'm planning on 2 5770s because if I get the 5850 now then I've have to get a better PSU then my budget will get around $1100, stupid tax. I'm sure by the time I do crossfire the price of the 5770 will have dropped. I'll stick with this build for a few years and by then tecnology...

ok so I guess I'll go xfire with 2 5770s since 2 5870s is overkill. As for the PSU I think this is probably my best bet http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139006 Though it may also be a bit overkill for my system

Well lets just bump my budget up to 1k and just get a better PSU and stick with 5770. I guess getting a better PSU now or getting it with another 5770 when I xfire wouldn't have a big difference in price. So I want a PSU that can at least xfire the 5770s and maybe even the 5850s but lets try...

so in your opinion I should stick with the build I have, with the 5770 and 500w PSU, right?

well its is a hard choice but do you think the thermaltake PSU has enough watts to power the entire system with the 5850?

I just came across this great deal on newegg...but I'm not sure if its worth picking over the current GPU and PSU http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.310962 thats basically getting a free PSU but it seems like its has horrbile quality with it only performing at 72%...

So I'm building a new computer and here are the parts... LITE-ON Black 24X DVD+R 24X DVD-R SATA Black 24X DVD Writer - Retail http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827106334 COOLER MASTER HAF 932 RC-932-KKN1-GP Black Steel ATX Full Tower Computer Case - Retail...

The differnce is only $20 between the 955 and 965 and if I'm going to spend $900+ then why not spend and extra $20 for a little bit better performence. And the reason I said I wasn't going to overclock was because at this point I dont need to since my monitar is only 17" running at 1080x1024 but...

I've decided to get the ram rockyjohn suggested and I've been looking around the web about the parts i'm gonna buy and it turns out a lot of ppl are having problems with ATI drivers and installing Windows 7 ( i'm gonna intall win 7 ultimate) and getting problems after or during installation. In...
