[QUOTE="turpieaj, post: 443097, member: 831"] 1. 64 bit processors are really only worth it if your using an Operating System (Windows64) plus software if its able to utilise the extra bits - plus the hassle of tracking down 64bit drivers and using posible 3rd party if OEM ones don't exist. 2.The motherboard is the most crucial part of the system IMHO the better the chipset the more efficient overall your pc will be. (I don't know much about nvidia chipsets as im a intel bloke meself) - RAID is where you can set up an array of hard drives to pool together and act as one which gives better disk performance. the two common modes are RAID0 which is two disks which "ghost" or mirror each other if one fails theres an exact copy of the data on the other:thumbsup:(secure but slower) RAID1 is where the data is striped across both disks (not secure- risk of losing all data if one hdd goes down):( but ultra fast performance. 3. Always when changing a motherboard reformat (but backup important data first) as you might be lucky and get windows started but with dodgy drivers onboard it will be very unstable with blues screens of death all over the place. Usually you wont have to alter the BIOS at all as every thing will be auto detected. The only thing you would have to change is the boot sequence priority when first installing windows again.
