Maybe last post!

Not bad,

I just recently built a:

Core 2 Quad
500GB HDD
4GB RAM
nVidia GeForce 7950GT 512MB
Vista Ultimate

system, however I am looking to run SLI if I can, however with a better graphics cards.

That is a fricken nice rig you've got there!

I would have got a couple of 9800GTXs but those 8800GTXs in SLi will be damn fine!

Tell us how it goes, you just better get a 22"+ widescreen monitor for that beast.

*is jelous*

very nice. :o
I was planning on building my own pc but i decided just to leave it ncase stuff went wrong and I'd have to chase up the websites I was buying from etc. ;/

Whats the 125GB Gaming HDD? If it's a RaptorX thought they only did 150gb, 75gb, 36gb.

Nice system though, not sure why you're using 3gb, unless you're on 32bit?

Not sure if I've said owt about my new rig but..

Case - CM Stacker 830. (7 Fans in use)
Mo/bo - Asus Maximus Formula (x38)
CPU - Q9450 @ 2.6GHz (atm)
Cooler - Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme
Memory - 4GB Corsair Dominator (PC-8500)
GFX - XFX 9800GX2
Sound Card - Creative X-Fi Xtreme Gamer
OS - Vista Ultimate x64.
HDD 1 - WD RaptorX 150GB
HDD 2 - WD 500GB Caviar
HDD 3 - WD 250GB (External)

I personally want to see evidence of that.

Nice.. Not Bad.. Nice.. Not Bad..

Sounds like a pretty good gaming system. How much did that set you back?

Mate, I would recommend you get a really decent case. Those two GTX's are going to overheat and burn themselves out especially in SLI.

You can't run SLi on your P5KC.
