Ok, here's some more questions for you all. . .

1-Gaming will be my main focus on this machine, which OS will be best OVERALL for gaming from A500-2000 computers?

2-If I want to transfer Disk to CD using my Amiga's, what's the best way to to it? My A2000 doesn't have a CD-Rom, the A4000 will.

That's all. . . for now!

Focusing on games makes speeding up the A2000 really hard. The faster you make it, ie 68060 accelerator, the worse it will be for games. An old GVP '030 accelerator would be a good choice for you. The G-Force line include SCSI and RAM expansion too. A great choice for gaming. This way you can use any SCSI CD, CD-RW, DVD, etc.. You may also want to look into 2Mb Agnus upgrade. DKB made a good one, IF you can find it. It's called the MegaChip 2000.
If this A2000 has a new enough mobo, you make it real workhorse, with video cards, Catweazle and/or Budha cards, etc.
OS depends on the age of your games. 3.1 ROM would be my choice, but you may want to stay with 2.04 if your games are older.
A2000 GVP 40MHz \'030, 21Mb RAM SD/FF, 2 floppies, internal CD-ROM drive, micromys v3 w/laser mouse
A1000 Microbotics Starboard II w/2Mb 1080, & external floppy (AIRdrive)
C-128 w/1571, 1750, & Final Cartridge III+
