I was wondering as I am upgrading my computer, I just got the processor and mb updated (amd 3700 w/ gigabyte mb). Now on to the nitty gritty, it has support for sata, and logically also eide! but I was wondering now that Harddrives are really cheap! what are the preformance differences between the 8MB cache and the new 16mb of cache? I know that the difference between the 2 and the 8 is substantial, so does anyone have personal experience with the 16mb harddrives? What about sata-150? I currently have 4 ide drives (2 hd and 2 optical drives)......

off subject question that I really need answered, is a fx5900 (128mb gpu card) enough of a graphics card to play new games today?

What also is the advantage of Sata Raid solutions?
