Hey I am making a new system and I would appreciate any help you guys can provide. After much consideration this is what I have come up with:

CASE:
ANTEC NINE HUNDRED-EU, MIDI
PSU:
ANTEC TP-TRIO 650W (2xPCI-E, EPS12V for 1 or 2 CPU)
MOTHERBOARD:
ASUS P5Q PRO, 775, Intel P45, ICH10R, BUS 1600 MHz, DDR2
PROCESSOR:
Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 , 3GHz, socket 775, 6Mb cache, FSB 1333, box, 45nm
RAM:
DDR2 4Gb (2x2Gb) PC8500 Corsair, 1066MHz, TWIN2X4096-8500C5DF, 5-5-5-15, Dominator E.P.P. Technology, ventilators
HARD DRIVES:
HDD WD 36.7 GB, WD360ADFD, SERIAL ATA, 16MB cache, 10000rpm RAPTOR
HDD Seagate 320GB, Serial ATA II, 7200 rpm, Barracuda 7200.11, ST3320613AS, 16MB cache, NCQ
GRAPHICS CARD:
Sapphire Radeon HD4850 512MB DDR3, PCIE, TVout, DVI
SOUND CARD:
Creative Labs X-Fi Extreme Gamer
PERIPHERALS:
Logitech Z-4, 2 satelites (8.5W RMS) + Subwoofer (23W RMS)
Logitech G15, USB
Logitech G5 Laser Mouse USB
LG LCD L207WT, 1680 x 1050 widescreen, 5000:1, 2ms, DVI
DVD+RW/-RW/RAM LG GSA-H55L, Dual Layer, Lightscribe, 20x, black, retail

First of all will there be enough room in there for crossfire later on?
Also what do I need to put the two disks in raid and which raid should I put them in?
And can someone explain to me what the whole 32 bit 64 bit thing is? If I get 64 bit windows can I still play games and do everything? And how do I know if I can install 64 bit windows on my comp?

Thank you for any help :)
