Looks like the case is back in stock, not getting message, can someone please kindly confirm? :)

Should I SLI another 1GB GTX460? Get the 2GB 460 instead? Or perhaps another choice? 460 has good reviews over the 465. 470 and 480 run hot.:p

Any other comments would be appreciated.....:)

Looks good, if the fast track is being accepted by the website then its in.

SLI is totally upto you and your budget.

2 x GTX460 in SLI config, I take it this would this be better for HD video editing? I need a pc that does not struggle with this type of editing.
Pc will be used mainly for this, authoring blu ray, dvd dual layer writing etc.
Need a pc that will easily cope with this sort of demand.

Oh i thought this was a gaming rig, SLI will do nothing for that type of work. Are you gaming at all?

It is similar, not sure if its a sonic, the call centre guys could confirm that.

A gaming spec is at odds with a video editing spec, for video editing your better off with Quadro, gaming a Geforce or Radeon etc.

I don't seem able to be able to specify the Quadro graphics cards from the pulldown choices.
Any idea on how to get them in the pulldown menu?

Good choice of 64mb cached HDD, yes the Quadros are primarily for 2d design and stuff like CADCAM. Gorman posted a little story on the subject which is an interesting read :D
