By the way 25%ish done. No pictures as of yet as I am having to replace an exploded fried power supply (don't ask) for another computer of mine.

Too much saliva?

Anyway, that new MB, is it PCI Express 2.0
Make sure it is as that's even more future proof. With SLI you might need the extra bandwidth. Most of the MB's currently is still PCI Express 1.0

It doesn't state and I have not called them on it yet but most likely what is going to happen is I'll wait til I get an 8-Core CPU and then upgrade mobo/cpu later on down the road to finish the job, I'm just tired of waiting on them to be honest and want to uberup the rest of a machine and worry about the 4 additional cores/pcie2.0 later on down the road when I have more time/money/a cleaner office

:shock: Dear god. How the hell is anything gonna get to those GPUs to even be processed? Your 3 vid card setup is debatable, but I can't imagine anything lower than a server class machine even remotely being able to feed those things. Geez.
