ok, so I've heard a lot of people saying to get a second hardrive just for OS data for faster boot ups and to get a second graphics card just for physics.Both of these would be beneficial to me as faster startups are always good, and I do play some games so having a card for graphics and putting less strain on the primary card would be good.But the question is...is doing such a thing worth it? After all, more components = more money = more heat

anyone have any advice?
 
To me they are not worth it. Might be different for you based upon your needs. From the sound of your post, I would say you also will not find the investment worthwhile.
 
yeah, I'm probably not gonna do it. It would get a lot more complex and probably expensive, and I have a pretty tight budget
