That is one sweet PC!!!!

I've been uploading MiniDv to my PC (similar specs) and while it's processing the video, i can do anything else without even noticing a slow-down.

I must admit, my GPU is overkill (again, very similar to yours) but i also like to do the odd bit of gaming (Battlefield 2142 so not really a strain on the card).

I hope it does all of what you're hoping!

Looks great! A lot of great thoughts!
