(ps. not sure if those things there make any sense.. if not i will clarify later)

I was having doubts between a mac pro, or this puppy with windows. I hope i made the right decision, i will be using it for photo-editing, webdesign work, HD video-editing).

Whatcha think, good stuff?
Nice. I have nearly the same machine except for Rampage III Formula MB.

A couple of things, I would have gone for at least DDR3-1333. I use DDR3-1600 and this means a lot if you intend to clock up the CPU. If you have the money I would even go higher. And 24 gigs is just overkill. 6 is enough. and 12 is more than enough. You will see almost no speed benefit from the extra ram and it is just more to go wrong.
