CPU and RAM and other questions for litecoin rig.

[fruitcommander]

Can I just go for any CPU? Like AMD Sempron 145 2.8ghz?
How about 4 gigs of corsair ddr3 ram?
How big of a harddrive should I get?
I plan on running 4 cards, so how do I power all four cards with a power supply? Do I chain them together somehow?
Also, how do I get a bootable of windows 7 onto a thumb drive.

-Yup, slow is fine
- 2GB per 7950/7970 needed appx.
- enough to hold OS, tweakers etc
- for power, check your GPU maximum watts here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_AMD_graphics_processing_units  this is max NOT OC.  Get a PSU 30-40% over the total (EG. 4x 7970 = 1000w, so 1300-1400w PSU min)
-Last one is easy, Take Windows 7 OEM install CD.  Place CD FACE DOWN onto your thumb drive and your set!  Naw.  Maybe a drive like this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=20-178-479&IsVirtualParent=1

How big of a harddrive should I get? JUST FOR THE OS
I plan on running 4 cards,YOU WILL THEN NEED A RISER FOR AT LEAST ON OF YOUR CARDS so how do I power all four cards with a power supply? THEY EXIST UP TO 1600W it depends on your cards Do I chain them together somehow?yes but I don't know how, but lok in the search
Also, how do I get a bootable of windows 7 onto a thumb drive. no too big, try A CHEAP HARD DISK

30%-40% extra is totally overkill. you only need 10%-20%.
