    sorry it took so long but I have been waiting since Summer for the 4-way SLI bridge to come to market . . .

    in the mean-time I switched from the ASUS Rampage IV to an EVGA SR-X (dual procs) and will have 96 gigs of ram

    EVGA SR-X and 4-way connector installed

    #1 - I wish I had a custom paint guy... all your rigs are beautiful

    #2 - Have you ever built a rig that cost less than 8K? :p

    Simply insane!

    Wish I had the balls to spend my money like this, but sadly they belong to the wife.

    Mod on!

    Wow, that's an impressive collection of hardware you've got there. I did notice that your sli h2o bridge is upside down. I'll be watching this for sure.:jawdrop:

    about the fan direction on the radiators, I am thinking about using a design I came up with a few years ago to prevent the radiators fans from fighting each-other. I would make a baffle between the rads. I will probably have to make a new bottom plate for the case out of modders mesh so the air can escape.

    For the tubing, I was going to bend copper hardlines and then nickle-plate them but too many people have been doing this so instead I have ordered some 12mm OD acrylic hard tubes (like in the Bitspower Crystal link kits). My plan is to use my heat-bending skills to do some really neat things (another guy has done this type of tubing but I plan to take it to the next level - we will see if I am successful).

    I know what you mean. I suppose the 4 boys don't help either.

    This is going to be an incredible build. It'd be worth a trip just to see it in person.:dremel::thumb::D

    wholly mother of all home multi-purpose machines :) nice hardware and design. can't wait for the organically flowing hard acrylic lines to match the theme ;).

    All you need are some workstation class vid cards mixed in with the gaming cards and you could render like a madman and still play anything you dreamed of without taxing the memory bus :).

    Soooo envious...well done as always Darth.
