Any thoughts on the configuration? Thanks in advance.

Thanks. I don't know what resolution I game at I'm not a huge gamer. At first I'll be using a 19 inch screen, and maybe a 24th in later on. Why should I go with the corsair PSU? Whats wrong with the OS tweek and why should I go with pro?

if you want quality and less headache then go with corsair.

os tweak also will not yield any difference that you will notice in apps and such.

pro gives you xp support so any thing that ran in xp, if it doesn't run on win7, you can run in xp mode that win7 has, its really a virtual xp in win7. Then there is also the ability to network and last pro can do 128GB of ram where premium can do only 16GB, not that I think we are gonna get close to that anytime soon.

Thanks for the advice.

Our pleasure and good luck
