Head over to Alienware. If you can't find anything good, give me a min, I'm helping someone else.

No Alienware. Overpriced pieces of shit.

[QUOTE=Shadow187(FP);16099841]Head over to Alienware. If you can't find anything good, give me a min, I'm helping someone else.[/QUOTE] You'll get yourself no where around here posting junk like that.

I don't intend to go anywhere, and I don't really care. Alienware used to have great deals, but I just checked it out and well..nothing good.

do you have 7 speakers and a subwoofer? if not and you don't plan to, the card would be going to waste

[QUOTE=Quantuam VTX;16100210]I have this: [url]http://www.bose.com/controller?url=/shop_online/speakers/computer_speakers/companion_5/index.jsp[/url][/QUOTE] Bose... :facepalm:

[QUOTE=It.;16100369]Bose... :facepalm:[/QUOTE] What, bose are perhaps the best known producer of amazing speakers.

You don't need 4GB of Vram, its a total waste unless you have a QSXGA monitor or equivalent. Even then, its still would be a waste.

Fuck SLI 285s. Fuck the GTX 285 in general, at least when a GTX 280 is only $250. Check this build out that I made for another thread: [url]https://secure.newegg.com/WishList/publicWishDetail.aspx?wishlistdetail=14322108[/url] i7 920, ASUS P6T, 3x GTX 280, 6GB DDR3 1600, 1000W Corsair PSU, 500GB Seagate HD, HAF 932, Vista Home Premium $1,904 before tax, shipping, and rebates. It appears that you want a sound card, so get whatever card you so desire and cut out one of the 280s. If you were considering a VelociRaptor, reconsider that and get this 1.5GB Seagate: [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148337[/url] [url=http://www.techwarelabs.com/seagate_1-5tb-mod/]With a simple mod[/url], you can get it to match/outperform the Velociraptor (albeit losing 1.2TB of capacity) for $100 less.

fuck
