There is always the possibility of having problems with Gpu`s regardless of wether it`s Nvidia or AMD. I just buy the best card i can afford for an alround performance. It will be a while before i need to upgrade. I don`t play online games and play most of my games(SP) on high settings.

I want to play all my games regardless if they are single player or multiplayer on high settings myself.
I have't gotten to play any current gen PC games yet.

Well, a 670 or 7950 will do that.
hell yeah , that will be awesome
I am looking foreword to this new system.
14 years ago people were saying "128MB of RAM is obscene! 64MB is the highest we will ever need to go" so I think it is highly likely that 192GB of RAM will become a common sight in 10 years or so.

Or it will just end up totally replaced by some new sort of technology and we wont be talking in terms of ram anymore..

Trying to choose the right motherboard is frustrating,this whole process of choosing the right parts is, especially regarding the more expensive parts.

Yes gaming and video editing, some 3D rendering. (noting major regarding the 3D editing so no need to specialize the build to much , the i7 will cover it)
Windows 8 ready.
the more usb 3.0 ports the merrier
Cpu wattage cut in half.
built in wifi and interaction with tablets.

This board has what I want , its managed to sell itself to me.
The only problem is someone said to me that if I have a problem with Asus.
sending stuff back for a repair or replacement is a nightmare

No point installing both. 32 bit applications will work fine on a 64 bit OS. Retail comes in a nice shiny box and allows 3 activations. OEM only allows 1 activation, but this can be circumvented during activation (usually by calling MS up in the activation process, simple enough).
there is another way................................

when you call them up about activation , what do you say to them exactualy ?
When people say activation , do they mean using it on more than one computer ?
