oh and.. there not "TOO" expensive : Ill go into budget on the compy post though. Keep an eye open for it.


Oh and thanks a bundle ^.^ already some corner-cutting expense saving.


Oh one last thing... about using the 2 HDD
C: would be like 20 gig like I said, for OS and pagefile
D: would be much larger- and should it contain a pagefile too- or just C:- and would it matter if it was partitioned into sections for each (Games/Imagesscreenshots/etc) or would that slow down/speed it up any?
