    Sounds yummy!

    End of Month, I'll likely be headed the (future) SLi route. Motherboard is to be determined, it'll be a single 6600GT so that I can SLi in the future when card prices dip. But I can't wait! Looking forward to your mod.
    ;)

    :thumb:

    Oh yeah... resize those pics there, bro! Bit on the HYOOJ side!

    looking the nice, clean look of it so far regarding the cables. I seriously can't wait to see dual vid cards watercooled using the nice invotech blocks. Good luck on the remaining parts of your pc coming intact, and hopefully no problems will arise that will compromise the functionality of this system. Wanna see some bench's real sooooon. I hope i can get a system like this when i turn 18 (getting a job at Fry's electronics!), in only 5 days!. Nice WORK! :clap:
