Yeah, I guess you could throw that in there. I have no idea if it'd be an actual upgrade when you compare it against the on board Intel HD graphics for example though.

Also, if you don't get an SSD right now and you decide to get one later on, you'd be able to do just that which is pretty awesome!

I have no idea what motherboard I need to go with those. I am also getting an nVidia graphics card (probably the Geforce 670 FTW Edition) but I dont know if that matters if you can please give me some advice on what to get I would really appreciate it and I will also +Rep. If you can PM me, it will just help me see it faster.

Are you sure that it is a good motherboard? I heard that ASUS and Gigabyte are the best but if the extreme4 is good I will get it. I dont know if it matters but I will be playing games, using microsoft office, maybe rendering videos, and watching videos on it.

I would not recommend it if it was not a good motherboard. MOBO's don't have any impact on gaming and or word documents. ASRock is Asus' sister company.

Ok Thank you. I hate to ask but could you help me pick a hard drive and a data hard drive. ? I dont want to overpay for something and I dont know the difference btween the data hard drive and the regular hard drive.

The PSU is not going to handle dual cards like 7770's / 550 ti's, no.

They're the same thing but in a different configuration.

Since you don't plan on having an SSD, a standard 7000rpm HDD will be both your boot+data hard drive that will hold everything.
