Updated my Gaming rig with my new hardware.
2x GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 580 3072MB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 2x DVI-I / mini-HDMI SLI Ready Graphics Card, GV-N580UD-3GI
And an Antec Lanboy Air Blue case
$2100 for that "gaming rig" ? what a joke I can build a system with SLI 680 and IVY bridge for $2100
Its just an asking price, sheesh. I'm not expecting to get that much for it. also, good luck with those 680's, with only 1.5gb of ram. lower max TDP, and small improvements elsewhere
Oh yeah, And reference coolers. And Hard to Find! And where will you get this unreleased(and unpriced) Ivy Bridge chipset mobo and CPU?
gtx 680s have 2GB VRAM
regardless of IVY bridge.
Can use 2600k + good mobo and still have cash left over
btw I'm just following the trend of traders on this forum. They all "criticize" other people's threads.
derp
