lemme get this straight, you've got 20k USD for a gaming rig?

Morgoth · Nov 19, 2007

skulltrail xeon processors

panchoman · Nov 19, 2007

for $20k you could get probably a dual cpu oct core(437W tecs on each) system with raid 0+1 of maybe 10tb with over 1gig of cache just for the raid with maybe 8 gigs of ddr3 1800 and of course 4x r680 cards in CFX (all with maybe 150W tecs) with a 790FXchipset (80W tec) we'll need maybe a 1080 rad for everything, dual loop wc system?

Morgoth · Nov 19, 2007

PiPBoY · Nov 19, 2007

guys,i want something reasonable

panchoman · Nov 19, 2007

Morgoth · Nov 19, 2007

can also be used for gaming..

panchoman · Nov 19, 2007

Quadfather and skulltrail are server boards that can do sli...and all the 940 opty's had nforce boards that supports sli.

panchoman · Nov 19, 2007

well they aren't released yet.. sadly

was gonna do something like http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813151072 that with dual quadcore xeons but i cant do sli.

also i was thinking maybe pci x 0+1 raid for a total of 5 tb?

I dont think so they would work all at once. But I think you will have to pairs of SLI.

panchoman · Nov 19, 2007

okay, well here we go:

that takes 17,500 of the 20k, leaving us with 2.5k for a system, and that my friend, is something i can do easily for you.

wikipedia is your friend if you want to catch up on the new gaming technology.

SLI is a technology invent by 3dFX in where you can combine the processing power of two (and now today...more) graphic cards to yield a higher performance.

so without sli the 2 cards will work separately?

do recomended MB has the sli chipset?
