6-Core Gaming Beast, EVGA GTX 550ti 2GB Dedicated!

This is my first gaming computer build. Current specs: 12gb G.Skill Ripjaws DDR3-10666 ram, AMD Phenom X6 1100T Black Edition 6 core, stock heatsink and fan, PC Power and Cooling 950W PSU, Lite-On Multi LightScribe drive, 64gb Samsung 470 Series SATA 2 SSD, 1TB Western Digital 5400 rpm SATA 2 hdd, ASUS amd/sli motherboard. I said in the video 5900 rpm drive, its 5400 and said sata 3 instead of sata 6, I meant to say SATA 2 not SATA 3. Not feelin too good when I recorded and caught myself after watching it. Feel free to leave comments, good or bad. First build, pretty happy with a 7.4/7.9! Also, have an EVGA gtx 550ti 2gb dedicated GDDR5 GPU, second on its way for sli!

whats the point of the 64gig samsung when u have 1tb.

sorry if its a stupid question

@LeeCC313 The solid state drive is strictly for my os. boot time on a ssd vs a standard 7200 rpm hdd is 15 seconds on the ssd and 1:30 on standard hdd. The os and all the programs associated are accessed much quicker making it alot faster. 1tb is for storage of my games only, not enough room for games on the ssd ;)

I wounder how your system will stand against an i5 2500k with two 550ti's on sli ...since buying a 1100t is more expensive as the i5 2500k
