Let's split it Jk

It's your choice. 150GB and 10,000 RPM or 500GB and 7,200RPM. I also chose that before, but then the calculator changed everything...

That PSU would hold, but it'd be very close...

Hmm.... well I might change it to a GTS G92... I dunno. Do they have it there?

Why would that PSU hold ?

According to CeeWi1's recommendations for video cards, the 8800GT would need about 400W, 26A.

Well to me 550 would be kinda low, but it'll probably hold
