    Ah bugger. Sorry - In that case go for 7900GTX's

    I'm going for 2x 320GB 7200.10 RPM (Perpendicular) Seagate's. Not only are they fast, but agreed, like [TAG]Imp said. They are really good value.

    Apparantly their f'kin hot in raid 0 too. But I do loads of multimedia and music production on my machine (as well as gaming!), so I'd be too scared of loosing all my data if something went wrong!

    I may in fact go for 1x 74GB Raptor (and install games etc. on there) and then 1x Seagate (as above) and use that for all else. Just really don't think it's worth it for a little performance increase (which apparantly is like 1 second faster at loading BF2 - according to a labs test I read somwhere)
