How much improvement can I get from this upgrade?

I'm planning to upgrade my system and I'm looking for suggestions on my plan. My current system is:
Intel Core i7 3770
Radeon HD 7570
500Gb SSD for everything
1tb HDD of extra storage
10Gb of RAM
Rendering is slow and a lot of dropped frames occurs when editing 4k in Premiere Pro CC. And my graphics drivers crashes when push the system too hard
This is my parts list for my future build:
Intel Core i7 5820k(will be overclocked)
Asus x99 deluxe motherboard
16Gb ddr4 RAM
Asus STRIX GTX 970
240Gb SSD
the 500Gb SSD and 1tb hard drive will be put I this build.
I have a few questions. How much of a performance improvement(faster renders, lower dropped frames etc.)would I see with this build? If I just upgrade the GPU, an SSD and increase the RAM size to 16Gb to my original system, how much performance improvement would I see? The upgrade to the 5820k will cost $1000 and I'm wondering if I can upgrade everything else except for the CPU, motherboard and ddr4 RAM?
Thanks in advance!

Ok, I'll chime in with an opinion at least.
Wait on the new book. Do a $90 ram/$29 OS upgrade and give up on spending money on a HDD.
Ive been looking at upgrades to speed up my laptop till I can afford a new one and have decided to wait 12months till SSD prices drop to $1.75-$2.50/GB. I think I will windup with a faster computer than anything that will come out for another 12 more months. I love getting the latest and greatest, but since I wont be able to afford a whole new computer next year I will be happy with a much faster book.
I am using 65% of my upgraded ram(4/3.3whatever), never all of my cpu and only 35% of my drive space. Also happy with my external LCD monitor.

How much performance can I get from my macbook?

It's older then 2,5 years but still quite good for my needs. It has a 2.16 GHz Core 2 Duo and I never use all the CPU, it has 2GB 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM and I use it all. I am not using all the 120 GB of 5400 rpm HDD but I use it often and I feel how much it is slow. Intel GMA950 is slow also, but it seems to be enough for me and is able to manage my external LCD at 1920x1200 resolution.
So I am thinking about two possible ways to have more performance:
1. get a new macbook pro of 13" with 4GB RAM, newer disk (may be faster);
2. upgrade my RAM, my Disk and may be my OS.
I know that I can use only 3.3 GB of RAM if I place 2 x 2GB 667MHz so-dimms: one more GB free could make difference for me.
About the disk, I know that my SATA is limited to 1.5 Gigabits but, using AJA System Test, I see that my internal drive is able to read and write about 29 MB/s, that seems to be even slower of my external 7200 drive that is using a Firewire 400 connection (39 MB/s).
It seems to me that newer HDDs on market, eg. Seagate Momentus.4 5400 rpm, are able to give much better transfer rate. My SATA should be able to manage transfer rates till 180MB/s so SATA II HDD should not suffer of it. Is it right?
Finally I could upgrade to Snow Leopard that should be a little bit faster then Leopard and with a completely new better finder.
So my questions are:
1. current 5400 HDD, like seagate Momentus.4, are really double or triple faster then my 2 years old hitachi? Even on my SATA controller?
2. 667 MHz RAM compared to the new 1066MHz could be a bottleneck even at 3.3 GB?
3. if I buy a new macbook pro, 2.53 GHz, 4GB RAM, 250GB HDD, how much performance difference will I notice between this new machine and mine with upgraded RAM, HDD & Os?
It's a difference of about 1.280$ (1.499$ - 220$), so I would be really pleased to listen what you think and know about this kind of upgrade.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Fabio.

How much storage can I get in the ipad app pages

How much storage space do I have in the app Pages?
Bob

As far as I know there is no limit within the app, your main limit is the space you have on your ipad.....if you have 5 gig open then Pages can use up to 5 gig, if you have 400 megs, then it can use 400 megs.

How much ram can be downloaded from the ITunes store using 3G?

I'm wanting to download some music apps/composing programs and wasn't able to download one because of 3G size/ram restrictions. I don't see any place on the app info site that tells me about the size, so I don't know until I'm actually downloading whether I can download or not. Is there a way to tell the size of the app if it's not posted on the ITune store? I'd rather not do partial downloads. ITunes was kind enough to get rid of Pages and I Am Symphony for me.
Another related issue because it's about a music app: It gave me a prompt when I first tried to. use it that I didn't have enough memory. I knew that couldn't be right since I have the 64g/3G/wifi model, so I ditched that app.
Is this what you can memory drain? I read about that on this forum? what's the best thing to do for that? restart? or did I do the right thing by ejecting the app?

Regards the size of apps the actual size of the apps is listed on iTunes
Secondly you seem to be getting storage capacity/app size mixed up with RAM. They are two different things. The 64GB you have on your iPad is for actual storage of content whether it be apps, books, music, podcasts, video etc. RAM is the volatile memory that is used during the running of the iPad including the apps.
The system requirements including the amount of RAM needed to run are not simply because unlike computers all iPads are the same regards the internal system specs. The only differences being the actual storage capacity and whether they have 3G capability or not.
If you get an error message regards lack of system memory or RAM then doing a reset may help clear this problem. Unfortunately some developers do not optimise their apps properly for the iPad and it's not the first time an app has not run or crashed due to a lack of RAM. The best thing to do is to report it to the developer using the link on their iTunes app page.
Regards memory leaks these do occur with both software on computers as well as apps on the iPad and iPhone. These are also due to badly designed apps or software and would need to be fixed by the developers.

Hello miss_papaya
That model supports 2 4GB modules for a total of 8GB, only problem is that 4GB modules are currently at a premium price. Have a look at the spec's in the following article or in the User's Guide that came with your iMac.
http://www.apple.com/imac/specs.html
Also have a look at Crucial and OWC memory below:

How much crediit would i get to go to a new ipod if i turned in my old 2g ipod

how much credit would i get from a 2g ipod touch to go towards a new ipod

Apple will give yu a 10% recycling discount if you turn in a old iPod and purchase a new one. Usually better off selling it yourself.

I have an ancient laptop (from 2005) that has my entire music library. This laptop barely works and some keys don't type anymore. How can I get all this music transferred to another computer, or available to me on the cloud?

No... do not move programs.
About the iTunes library files
Your iTunes library files track the media you add to iTunes, how you've organized it, and other information such as playlists. By default, these two files are in your iTunes folder:
Mac OS X: /Users/username/Music/iTunes/
Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
Windows Vista: C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes\
Windows 7: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\
Windows 8: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\

I transferred my iTunes library from Window PC to MacBook pro and now I cant play songs that I purchased with an earlier ID and Password. How can I get around this problem?'t

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...

I was recently blocked from using app Jack'D. Message I receive says "Your device has been blocked". How can I get around this?

Quoted from their FAQ's:
I got an error message saying my device is blocked. Why did this happen?
There are two reasons this could happen: You have deleted your account or you have been banned due to violation of terms of service.
- You have deleted your account.
When you delete your account, you agree that your device would be blocked for at least one month. This policy is enforced in order to protect users from stalkers. (If the system allowed users to create and delete their accounts any time they wanted, the Block feature would be compromised and wouldn't be able to protect users effectively.) Please understand this is not a punishment but a security measure intended to keep all of our users safe.
- You have been banned due to violation of terms of service.
Users of this mobile application are required to comply with our terms of service and instructions provided by our service team.

Look on Apple India (or country where you are currently) for the educational
program.
In the US, the link is http://store.apple.com/us-hed/findyourschool?aid=AOS-US-Edu-NavLink
As Stedman1 states above, there is no discount for iDevices.

I backed up my bookmarks to an external drive, rebuilt my system, and now when I try to restore from that file, I get "unsupported file type" How can I restore from this file?

I backed up my bookmarks to an external drive, rebuilt my system, and now when I try to restore from that file, I get "unsupported file type" How can I restore from this file?

Make sure that the backup file with the bookmarks has the correct file extension: .html for a HTML backup and .json for a JSON backup. 
You can check that via the right-click context menu of that file and open the Properties. 
If you are not sure about the file type then you can open the file in Firefox via "File > Open File" 
A JSON backup will show as one long text line without line breaks and a HTML backup as a web page with clickable links. 
A JSON backup starts with: {"title":"","id":1,"dateAdded": 
An HTML backup starts with: <nowiki><!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1></nowiki>
You may need to add quotes ("") around the name to rename the file to the correct file extension.
