Mine is the 1GB version, so your 2GB will be better.

I'm using the same SSD, OCZ Vertex 3, 120GB as my boot drive.
The first one died after a couple of weeks.
My local store has a 4 year warranty (instant product replacement) plan, so I had a brand new one that day.
And the new one has been great.

I've got the i5 2500K.
The i7 2600K is marginally faster, but has 4 logical cores to go with the 4 physical cores, which can help you multitask or stream better, etc.
Yes I thought the additional RAM in the graphic card might help. I took the i7 over the i5 simply due to what you stated - possible streaming etc. Good to hear that the SSD is working out and overall it seems I am ready to order it.

Thanks for your reply, I think I am just gonna go with that setup
