I understand there will be a FTW version of the EVGA X58 board with X16X16X16 support out next month is that right

if the rumors are true then yes

huh..x58..sure looks nice :)

Nice build but no sound card???

13

if he is spending that much money i think he does not have a budget and will be spending the extra money on a good sound card

if youre building this for gaming i suggest you save your money, all this will get you is bragging rights for a few months. not only is SLI a gimmick, but your eye wont be able to notice a difference between 40 or 45 or 4500 fps anyway, plus most screens have a 60hz refresh rate, meaning anything over 60 fps gets discarded anyway. even if u get 80 fps in crysis, whats the point if its just theoretical?

Sound Card will be the X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Champ edition

@div lol its like crazy expensive but i guess hey its top of the line and it makes you look l337 in some way really makes you look rich thats all i wish i could build a system with out a budget
