Im pretty sure the mobo and graphics and compatible but thought id make sure. Iv never bought an ATI card before. If the 4890 is lacking later, i can just add another one.
The VelociRaptors are pricey, but i couldnt resist hehe. Iv been wanting to get solidstate drives or SCSI for ages. These should be pretty quick in Raid 0. Hopefully they wont be too noisy. Ill store my data on 1.5TB seagate drives in Raid 5.
Any thoughts are appreciated.
