    In gaming or other things where the hardware is being pushed at all? I imagine the list goes to about "Nothing," basically. However, I can imagine that this setup would do excellently with epileptics, as this will probably greatly improve their PC experience in general.

    Is that...9 cards? I'm assuming it's 3 different builds with Tri-SLI on each of them.

    Yes that is 9 cards. They serve another purpose besides gaming.

    I play on one monitor, i HATE multi monitor setups, until the day they bring out screens with NO edges whatsoever (not even a 1mm edge) I prefer having my one, nice big screen. Its 60Hz and 1080p I don't need to overclock a 7970. I'm not gonna upgrade the monitor to get higher resolutions either, I struggle reading some text at 1080 :/

    WHERE DO YOU PEOPLE GET THIS MUCH MONEY!? My computer now is worse than the computers that were posted two years ago at the start of the thread.

    I have a 4 year old Dell Inspiron 530 with two extra GB of RAM (4 total) and a Radeon 6670. Epic Core 2 quad 2.4gHz, 32-bit windows 7 and 1TB HDD.

    I get a smooth 25FPS in SC2 under medium settings and light load with nothing else running (I can't even have Chrome open in the background). I will include my paypal so that the rich people in this forum can donate to my non-poor rig

    CPU: I5-3570k
    Mobo: Asrock Z77 Extreme4
    RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16gb (2 x 8gb)1600 Mhz CL9 (Just ordered these, arriving here thurs/fri)
    HDD: 1tb, not sure of the specs...stole it from my previous computer that was prebuilt
    SSD: 120gb OCZ Vertex 3
    GPU: Radeon HD 6780
    PSU: 575W DiabloTek
    Case: Corsair Carbide Series 300R
    Cooling: Typical low end decent aftermarket CPU cooler
    Monitor: Some Hanspree I've had for a few years now, couldn't even tell you the size

    Possible future plans involve replacing the CPU cooler with a Corsair H60 or H80, upgrading to a nicer 24" monitor, and purchasing an Asus Xonar D1 or DX sound card.

    Erm, you should really consider a test bench if you're not wanting to put them in a case, the stress on those PCIe slots is not good for them... It's amazing they still work now...

    Consider:

    With the nature of the setups I'd probably sooner think about the 300R tbf, Phobya's testbench or LD Cooling's test bench.

    You missed one of the worst.

    Being a musician. ;p

    My drumset alone is worth $5,000-6,000.

    Code Cracking or video rendering? :P


    My media server died last night................... , So I went out and bought this crap:


    The PSU is for my tower, and I took my old Thermaltake 430w and stuck it in the server.


    I dont even turn my server off anymore, I configured RDP for multiple concurrent connections, so I just remote in when I need to do any maintenance. Its a lot better then trying to find a keyboard and mouse to hook up at 3am. :P
