    When Bill likes one of my projects, that is when I know I did ok. really. There are many modders I appreciate greatly but very few who I place high upon a pedestal and worship them. Bill is one of those. :dremel:

    DB, what are those fitting you are using between the cards?

    Also, not going with a parrellel setup? How come?

    ok - I just can't sleeve as well as Performance PCs . . .arg. I did a PCI-E cable and it came out ghetto compared to the rest of the ones they did. Going to swallow my pride and ask them to do one more. This cable is a challenge because it has an 8 pin and 6 pin cable on the videocard end so you can use one cable to power an entire card. When you unisleeve it is a challenge. Performance PCs has the sleeving skillz to pay the billz.

    Also ordered some of the larger Bitpsower SLI fittings from Performance PCs as these ones only have one o-ring and will leak with case vibration. the larger ones hopefully will fit and unfortunately will only allow you to see a little of the plastic tubing but that is ok. I need to be able to ship this mo fo to events.

    also, keep in mind this rig is a bit sloppy as I just wanted to get it running for gaming and will look better once I put in the new Asus Rampage III mobo.

    Care package from Asus. They sent me an i7 975 to hold me over until they get me a 980X. They also sent an awesome Antec True Power 1200 watt PSU that I will use for my similar Star Wars build.
