GTX 580 (or GTX590 dual)

Windows 7 OS 64Bit

I tentatively plan to keep my current four 400GB 7200 SATA2 HD's (currently in a RAID config which I don't think I'll do this time). I've done no research, yet, on State-of-the-art new HD's...So advice on Drives would be most welcome
Save the $100 and go 2500k. For gaming the performance gains of the 2600k are marginal at best. The rest will be great.
