Is it better to have a single WD Velociraptor 150GB or two 7200RPM in RAID 0? If 7200RPM, any specific drives? I also have a Seagate 500GB 7200.10 that I could use for backup. Rest of the Components (shipping at the moment): Intel i7 920 / Thermalright 120 Extreme Foxconn BloodRage...

I want to know if efficiency of the power supply is affected by how much load it's taking. I would be playing games like Crysis, Call of Duty 4/5, Age of Conan

Would this Enermax power supply loose efficiency if I use it to power a single gtx 260 for now? Maybe later on I'll add another 260. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817194041 I know it's expensive, but it's the only one I've found that has filled my expectations...

Anyone have an answer for this? please

Will I need a new UPS (like this one?: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16842102070) Or my current 550VA one would be fine? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16842102032 Keep in mind I also have a ViewSonic 20" LCD Monitor. Making the final decisions...

Not sure yet what motherboard to get, but kinda leaning towards more to the Gigabyte one. For the power supply, I want it modular to cut down on the cable mess, and thought that Zalman looked prettry good, altough not sure how it would turn out on the electricity bill? Wouldn't that G.Skill...
