Is 60GB enough? -What will fit (analysis)

[Nightcover]

While I agree with Computurd regarding SSD, if you're gaming a lot here the list of what's most important: 1. GPU, 2. CPU to feed it fast enough, 3. RAM, 4. HDD. Your rig is not very balanced with top notch CPU and RAM, but oldish GPU. 8800gt will be lagging in modern games. HD5850 offers nice $/fps imho. You can short stroke your HDD, by creating primary 100Gb partition and putting OS/Apps and you will be fine. The rest 400Gb you can fill in with data.

Thanks for your respond (also the one over you)

I just ordered a SSD and while I agree with everything you say, I really don't feel troubled with my 8800GT cards yet. I can play BC2 with 1600*1200 on all High (2xAA 16xAF Ambient occlusion OFF) with no lag which for me is 40+ FPS

Thanks for your insight!

I'm sure I'm going to enjoy SSD awesomeness.

Next upgrades most likely are:
new display and new gfx.
