I'm trying to build a good gaming/school/work rig. I am an IT major so I'm a HD whore, always switching them out working with both Windows and Linux OS's etc, etc, but I also want a nice gaming rig for free time.
From what little time I have had to spend researching, this is what I have come up with:
