    I have one of those Full Tower HAF cases and they are monsters. It's rightfully named Monstrosity on my network. Looks like a great pc to me.

    Think so, but I will only use one for now. .only reason I'm getting a 3G video card is because VRam helps 3D from what I hear, and boxing 8) I might add a second if i ever feel the need. But i have a laptop atm that i 5 box wow on.. so ill prob just get that new 27 Asus 3D vision2 monitor coming out soon and use my laptop for other shit.

    By itself as a single card, it does not.

    If you're going to have 2 monitors, make sure they support the same resolutions otherwise your video card
    will never drop down into an idle power state.

    what's the powersupply.

    add this corsair 1200 will run you for 2k

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...air-_-17139014

    i was trying to build one also.

    but with the same config, build from http://www.buyxg.com seems to be only $60-80 more comparing to buying all the parts from newegg and build it yourself. and they tune and test your builds too before it is shipped to you. I think its better to let them build it than having DOA parts from newegg. I just can't take the frustration of dealing with fail parts anymore.

    oh and personally, i'd stay away from MSI GTX580. Get some other brands.

    I'm thinking about going through Digital Storm.. they have very high reviews and they have great prices for a builder. My build would cost me 200 more through them though. But the peace of mind might be worth it.
