    What would you do in this awesome GPU situation?

    As much as it would be difficult not to install one in my PC, the weight of guilt, knowing I'd have effectively stolen 12 top range GPUs wouldnt be worth it. I'd contact FEDEX and live with a clear conscience, being a firm believer that one way or another you will get what you deserve in the...

    got the lcd fitted too, so the front panel is finished, just needs a fine polish and wax now :)

    best case?

    If you are going by the case itself (ie not the fans or isolation you use) Id say the stacker as it is a much stronger case design. The main frame is more sturdy so will eliminate most of the vibration noise. And those things are so damn heave without parts in, hate to think what mine will weigh...

    Good mobo for the E6600?

    Corsair Dominator 8500 C5 will only post at 2.4v

    yeah its brand new ram, but it only seems to have happened after it was fitted, my old corsair xms 2 pro 8500 worked fine. I just wasnt sure if the dominator needed 2.4v to run on my P5wDH-deluxe. I have just got a new asus comando delivered this morn so will try it on that and see how it goes...
