Alright, so I am really not trying to be lazy, I just have no idea IF this is a thing or how to even begin searching for an answer.

I have an old system I will be re-purposing for a short time until more of my shirts sell. It will be upgraded to a new case and then the CPU, RAM and MOBO will come next in one fell swoop. I am concerned with "bottlenecking" I have heard so much about and compatibility with Windows 7 x64.

System Specs are as follows:
•AMD Athlon 64 x2 6000+
•G.Skill 4GB DDR2 800
•PowerColor Radeon HD 7850
•Samsung 840 60GB SSD
•WD Green 500GB
•Sound Blaster Audigy
•Asus M2AVM Mobo

Do the experts here foresee any difficulties? Oh and the PSU is the NEW part it's a Seasonic X Series 650W 80Plus Gold

Is that something that you already have? or you plan to upgrade to those?

It is what I already have, that's why I said, "

I put it all together and aside from the horrible update speed it went well. Assigning the USERS data to the storage partition and turning off all the bells and whistles that can kill an SSD, was a LOT more complicated than I apparently made it. Safe Mode FTW! It's working nicely and me and the missus can even play the occasional Starbound together.
