$3800 :eek:

I only paid $2500 for my system. Given I only have one video card but it still should not have cost $1300 more then mine.

Nice setup but a few points:
1. The 2x6800GTs are gonna be bottlenecked by the CPU
2. OCing isnt really an option on that ASUS mobo since it's limit is relatively low (recent ASUS boards have had stupidly low limits on the HTT)
3. I hope you didnt pay more than ... *breaks out the calculator* ... ok I wont say :D

You'll cry over that one day.. lol

Definitely agree with that. I think that although the specs are very nice, that the amount of cash you invested was a an over-stretch. Why pay so much for something that at the day you are buying it, is already "old" technology? I do understand Praetor's revamping of the box. That's a better solution.

well, if you've got the money to spend $3800 on a pc, then good for you, but thats about $1000 more than my car cost, lol. Of course it's just an 9 yr old sunfire, but it gets me around.

I dont suppose you could give us the prices you payed for it all, cos that price is alot for the product. I mean mine cost 3,000.00 GBP 5,794.29 USD and even with SLI yours aint no way near my PC.
