What if I get Intel i5 2500k for my PC build will it still work, and also, what's the difference between the 2.5k and the 3570k, I've heard things such as the 3570k being a bit powerful but it's has a downside because it can overheat a bit faster since it's an Ivy Bridge and Sandy Bridge doesn't.

Will it work nicely?
I just did that to make some changes since a friend told me that mainly the SLI and Crossfire is mainly if I want two graphics, which I don't, and also because SLI will only for work NVIDIA and Crossfire with ATI/AMD, and I rather use which ever the two since I'[m not really that picky, only if...
So far I've been thinking and getting help from my friends too, and my friend told me to get a 8GB of memory since 16GB is overkill because of the way the technology is in gaming. So this is my new Memory I got :
CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)...

SATA 6Gb/s
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Most of the time it will be used for PC Gaming, and a bit for school, such as printing my "Homework" and using Programs such as Microsoft Word, Powerpoint, etc. But most of the time it will be for Gaming.
2) What's...
On the # 9 Question, what does it mean, and what are the difference between RAID, Crossfire, SLI, and Firewire and what do they do, how does USB 3.0, SATA 6Gb/s, and eSATA work individually?
