Tri GTX 285's Beat 2x GTX 295's
[QUOTE=ReznorT;13627136]Tri GTX 285's Beat 2x GTX 295's[/QUOTE] Which will cost even more, anyways, as drivers improve multi-GPU scaling, it's likely that the GTX 295 will begin to outperform
Well at least it will be better than ajacks :P
Poor Ajacks. He is no longer the king.
[QUOTE=Odellus;13633799]Poor Ajacks. He is no longer the king.[/QUOTE] I don't understand? I don't ever recall being called or calling myself a king of anything. I had a mind range Q9550 and two video cards to run my monitors. There has always been people with better machines on here than I have ever had.
[QUOTE=Odellus;13633799]Poor Ajacks. He is no longer the king.[/QUOTE] Newer hardware does not make someone the king anyways. It's all about style. I still like Ajacks setup way better so far.

Please don't turn this into a pointless argument.

[QUOTE=apwd007;13629965]Which will cost even more, anyways, as drivers improve multi-GPU scaling, it's likely that the GTX 295 will begin to outperform[/QUOTE] but the 295 has slight microstutter.
[QUOTE=Darkride197;13636923]but the 295 has slight microstutter.[/QUOTE] what?
[QUOTE=Darkride197;13636923]but the 295 has slight microstutter.[/QUOTE] 'microstutters' exist on all SLI and Crossfire setups to some degree I've just put a order in for some more items.
[QUOTE=Darkride197;13636923]but the 295 has slight microstutter.[/QUOTE] From what I've read, they've addressed the microstutter on the newer X2 boards and the issue has been resolved. We'll see the day after tomorrow when mine comes in.
Old, but: [QUOTE=ChristopherB;13486117]I thought Enermax was one of the cheap brands people are supposed to avoid?[/QUOTE] Actually, they can be as expensive as their competitors. A defect in a certain line of 2007 PSUs hurt their reputation, but they did honor their 3 year warranty with redesigned product - not just refurbished units. Although their website is pretty crap, their customer service is excellent. Will the case fans operate at a constant 100%, or will you use a controller?
Oh god, that PC is gonna be über sexy!

The power supply I'm using, I infact chose over the cheaper 1000w corsair which seems to be the standard for high end builds. This new range of Enermax PSUs have some of the best specs and are getting the best reviews on the market.
Yay for overkill! You're going to be able to play every game on the market for several years. How are you paying for this!?
[QUOTE=Zombii;13643178]Yay for overkill! You're going to be able to play every game on the market for several years. How are you paying for this!?[/QUOTE] I bought my rig top of the line in october and I know it won't last several years on new games. It will last several years though.

Sickk! Make a video of building it, with a billy mays mask on
looks insane so far.

Yay another mini Christmas for you :D
DO WANT. A rampage II, WOW.
I was going to build something like this but I am awaiting the next gen of Intel processors. Same Mobo, RAM, CPU and GPU too.
Rich FPers make me cry.
Well, if the specs and reviews are good then I suppose the Enermax PSU is a decent choice. I presume there isn't anything wrong with the Corsair 1000w PSU (which would have been my first choice) just you chose the better one correct? Just trying to make sure I haven't missed any deep flaws in the Corsair brand; I've always considered them to be one of the best. Sexy motherboard and waterblock by the way.
[QUOTE=Zombii;13663358]Rich FPers make me cry.[/QUOTE] Just being able to have a job doesn't classify someone as rich. I work a full time job making 900$ every 2 weeks. Buying a computer is no problem but that's because I live in a small apartment paying rent. I really have no other expenses. Saving up for a new car tho.
