It will have Win 7 as OS and mostly the sys will be used for gaming, movies, tv series etc. So suggest the ideal no. of partitions and sizes.
 
This is hard to do w/o knowing ya situation....for example, I use an NAS so don't need lottae data storage

C:\ Boot - 128 GB (OS)
D:\ Temp - 32 GB (Temp and page files)
E:\ Games - 480 GB (Games and Multimedia)
F:\ Programs - 128 GB
G:\ Data - Balance

In your case, I might do

C:\ Boot - 128 GB (OS)
D:\ Temp - 32 GB (Temp and page files)
E:\ Stuff - Balance (everything else)

What is better? To have large few partitions or small several partitions?
