    Now the reason i can buy this is because im still living with my parents as i continue to do college and work. This is purely not price conscious and i posted to ask for some advice if you would have any.

    the most concerned i am is the Case not being able to fit the 2 gtx's, but im pretty sure it will since most of the reviews were on how big and heavy that case was and it had some good depth.

    also if you guys have recommendations of BETTER things for cheaper, or a tiny increase in money, I'm listening. Thanks.

    i have not bought this cause im still saving the last of the money i need.

    if you are going to spend that much money, you might as well get a SSD for your OS. Your current HDDs will suck with that system.

    Look for an ASUS board with at least 6 RAM slots and SLI.You can't use DDR2 ram, get 6x2GB DDR3

    So i edited the motherboard and the video card, and ram.

    I took out the sli cards and replaced them with a HD 5870 since it would be cheaper, and its a damn good card.

    got an asus 6slot i7 core motherboard and switched out patriot ram for cosair ddr3 ram 4gb total.

    If theres anything i would need to change for my video card tell me now please, i didnt do much looking right away, just compared video cards today and saw that card obviously raped a 290gt and at half the price.
