My SATA-1 harddisk is also much faster than my SATA-3 harddisk because it has 10.000rpm - in most cases the connection/port is not the bottleneck...


GPU = graphical processing unit
in other words the graphic cards processor - so it is just a part of the graphic card beside memory, connectors, fan and so on

yes

Your system should be able to show the current RAM usage (look into the task manager in windows) - if the RAM is full and the system starts using so called virtual memory (=writing the data to your harddisk) then you should upgrade the RAM

Hmm oh okay didnt know what,

Well I have 3 GB Ram and it says 1,92 GB So does that mean I'm good for now ;p?

And on the MOBO, any info on which Graphic Card I should choose? Which one I should prefer ;p?
