Sorry for late post been really busy with school. Anyway Thank you sooo much for the help. I like your suggestions on graphics and ssd. I do have an external drive and capacity isn't that much of a problem. I am just putting a handful of games on the drive. However I heard that you can't defragment a SSD. And was wondering if you could possibly run the risk of the drive slowing over time and not being able to do anything to help speed or clean it up? I may look at sound cards but I am curious, would I need a good sound card to have decent audio in game? Because a lot of my gameplay I am looking to upload to Youtube/stream. And as for blu ray I don't plan on getting it now knowing those draw backs. Thanks for everyone else's input as well. I really appreciate it because this a large sum of money I am going to sink into this and want to make sure I can get the best I can with what I am paying for. So thanks again guys EDIT: I also noticed that with selecting the new graphics card (GTX 560) the frame rate, or projected frame rate, drops a bit on all ends. Is the physX going to make that much of a visual difference? Sorry I am not all that experienced with graphics cards x.x
