Guys I also need to know if with this system i can run 64bit.. what is the difference? has any one tried it? do i need to buy completely different parts to run 64 bit???

Also for the GPU.. if i dont get the 7900GT but the 7600GT, and later on get another 7600GT in SLI, would i be happy?

Thanks

135 MOBO - ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe Socket 939
