after loads of research into the parts, i finally settled and ordered this pc, i forgot to add the 2nd graphics card when i ordered so amended it, going for top sli performance. I've bought a noctua nf-s12b fan which i will add to the eco radiator for a push/pull config.
I sold my old fender strat to help pay for this rig, so i am hoping to god it works out of the box and is delivered by a courier with safe hands and who knows what 'FRAGILE' actually means!
As a side issue there is soooo much stuff on the web about windows7 64bit not being able to run crysis and/or crysis warhead, does anyone know the truth about this, or actually run the game on a 64bit system, thanks.
cant wait to hear that knock on the door from the delivery guy!
