Such an overkill rig, it's up to you but the one thing you're REALLY missing is an SSD, with the amount of money you're spending I suggest getting a Samsung 840 EVO/Pro. Normally I would suggest 840 EVO 256GB but with that cash you might as well get a 512GB Pro or 1TB EVO.

Also why Ivy Bridge CPU? Get Haswell i7 4770k

Edit: Also, personal preference, I don't like 1080p on a 27"+ monitor. A 1440p IPS display would look much nicer, something like an Asus PB278Q, and if you still have leftovers you can never go wrong with dual monitors.

Edit 2: Wait I just noticed, do you have 2 Titans and a 680? You can't sli different cards, you have 1 superclocked from EVGA and 1 Reference? 1 should be enough for anything but if you want just get 2 identical cards(The EVGA superclocked), discarding the 680 for an SSD and a 1440p monitor or 2.

This is a "Back to the drawing board" system. Is it ... good? I suppose. Is it remotely worth what it costs? It's honestly difficult to say simply 'no' without laughing.

I would suggest filling out the Build Sticky and we can help you put together a good, cost effective system for your needs and budget.

I also would highly recommend buying from Ironside Computers. I've heard way too many complaints and scam reports regarding them lately.

Hi, I tried sending you a pm but I can't because I just joined today and cannot send out PMs until I have ten posts. Just wondering where you are finding all these complaints and scam reports on Ironside. I can't find any thing wrong with them in my research except for one person with a problem with their build. I did a lot of research and I ruled out Ibuypower, and Cyberpower along with a few others because of massive amounts of complaints.
Can you provide any links to the complaints and scam reports?

[chazus]

It was actually a combination of things (Keep in mind, this thread is four months old). There had been a number of complaints about them recently from several sites, people having issues getting service or damaged parts. That, paired with their laughable prices, was a reason to avoid them. Even if they're legit, their prices are absurd, even for pre-built.

If you are still looking for a build and are willing to spend that much, I would wait for the next generation of hardware.
edit: I would also recommend buying a different monitor as with 2 titans you might as well go with 2 1440p monitors.

Funny system
Made my day ^_^

I priced out Ibuypower, Cyberpower, OriginPC ( the highest by far ) and cybertronpc and Ironside was the lowest pricing. When I priced all the items out from newegg with shipping I would have paid about $300 less if I built it myself and had to deal with separate warranties on each piece. There is not one complaint on this site and in my research on other sites I did not find a single complaint going back to 2011. As stated I found one complaint from a customer who had issues with hardware not screwed in and a wired not ran. I have no clue where your finding all these complaints you speak of. Can you link me to the complaints or tell me what sites they were on? I ordered the computer from them and I can cancel but I have to do it quickly!

I would recommend checking the computer builds that are posted on MMO Champ regularly.

Latest one is in this post: http://www.mmo-champion.com/content/...-Veins-Contest

This list of features looks like you just checked off the most expensive item available in each category?

As I said, this thread is nearly half a year old. Things may have changed since then. Usually if a company starts getting bad PR, they take steps to clean it up, which may be the case.

If you want to verify if a build you got from them is worth it, I suggest making a new post regarding it. I can try and verify their validity some more with current info.

In the meantime I'm going to close this thread as it's both old and some info may not be valid/useful anymore.
