let me be the first to add that I had to google "gaming cum server" and realized (after some confusion) that you meant "gaming-cum-server" (I think). You need the dashes in there. Maybe it's just me, but they read as two totally different things without the dashes. Just, ah, some future proofing for you, I guess.

Why is getting a large HDD a bad idea? I run a 1.5TB HDD right now and have different partitions. It works better for me too when I do backups since I dont have to do a full back up every single week on each partition.

OK 750W done what do you suggest for the cooling case im for CM 690 or Antec

is the normal cooling given by CM V8 enough when u OC to 3.0GHz (core i7 920)

as for monitor im thinking of 24"

any other suggestions regarding motherboards
does ASUS P6T have any problems regarding OC,Dual GTX 295,
Im mobo im thinking of NVIDIA 790i too

Waiting for ur reply

you can't stick a 920 in a 790i, go with evga x58, your case is gonna be cramped even if the 2 cards fit you need a full tower, go with the haf.

you are not running 2 x 295 on a 750w psu either, you need a 1000w or higher.

for cpu cooler go with Noctua NH-U12P

for a 24" monitor all you need is 1 x 295 or better yet 2 x 275.
