Hi

Obviously we can only advise on Gigabyte products but I see no reason why you should have any problems doing what you have envisaged there.

With regards to how you change your emil details on your profile as long as you are logged in you should be able to go to your profile and make any alterations that you want to. If you can't please post back.

By the way your two links are not working.

I am sorry but it isn't possible to make an informed decision without knowing a lot more about your requirements and budget etc. It isn't just a case of saying this is better than that. :-\  Besides you can reuse the GPU in your next build if you wanted to.
