1. Don't get zotac
2. That hard drive is horrible

get this

[Treynolds416]

Well, don't get zotac and don't get a 640
Try a 7770 or a 7790

[Blockzillahead]

In case you're wondering why no zotac, it's because of terrible(very) cooling.

fx 6300 is a better value.

Anyone want to recommend a reasonably priced gaming mouse of decent quality with more than 2 programmable buttons and no stupid stuff hanging off it?

I got my LG 24" 1080p monitor for only 120. Also get him 2 TB instead of 1.

[Cut Glass]

Anyone know any software that completely erases data on the hard drive, absolutely no possible way to recover.

Looks nice, unfortunately I can't bend my pinkie and ring fingers well enough to use the other two macro buttons comfortably. Any suggestions with the macro buttons all on the left side of the mouse?

Any mouse with macros all on one side will cost more.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826153125 is probably one of the cheapest that has decent quality.
