Why 2 greens? They are designed to be cool and low power with little regard to speed. Get 2 Samsung 500GB F3 drives, they will perform much better.

The ram in this combo will perform better, it comes out to less before rebates but a bit more after

Okay, I switched the ram/gfx combo for the one you said. Any suggestions on a WD hd instead? I don't like samsung.. ><

if you want to go WD get a 640GB caviar black

It will cost you more and will perform about the same as the F3
