You could sell all your current hardware and get a computer that has SLi and a pretty nice CPU. Just an idea...

you are wrong good sir
read up: http://www.gamepc.com/labs/view_cont...ookie%5Ftest=1 There is thought that the "newer" ones were fixed, so you have to bridge the L5 fuse on the chip. They are laser etched to keep you from just slapping on some conductive paint, so you need to follow this procedure: http://www6.tomshardware.com/howto/20011112/ That is for unlocking multipliers. You do use that procedure on the last L5 fuse. So use that procedure on this fuse: http://www.hardwarezone.com/articles...=2&id=393&pg=2 I don't suggest just using the paint without the super glue, as the cut between contacts hits a layer of grounded copper leaf. so if you get conductive paint in there that is bridged to the L5 contacts, it grounds the whole thing and defeats the point. So you need to insulate it with super glue first.
