First, thanks for responding. Second, the p4 I mentioned was the 1st computer I ever built. The pentium 4 was the first processor made by intel that had the hyper technology. That was years ago. I mean like "dinosaur" years ago, lol .
It was no where near a super game rig or anything. Same hardware from day I built that machine is still in it except I added a water cooler to the maturing processor and added a 9500gt video card.
The machine is still working beautifully, but can't really play todays games. After all, it only has 4 gigs memory, has the D915GAG Intel board and runs XP home edition. It's a decent machine for streaming movies on and checking mail. My game rig I built that I use currently has 2 5970's in it that's on Intel's DX58SO extreme series board. I have 12 gigs memory installed, 1000 watt corsair psu, all fans are fluid bearing.It illuminates blue .
Everything is water cooled. The case that houses my hardware is Antec's twelve hundred v3 .I really love this case. I have 2 SSD's, and 1 2 terabyte drive for storage. Then I have NZXT's fan and temp. monitor. I'm not happy with the monitor because of to many issues, but nzxt won't rma it out.But over all it's a sweet machine, but time for a complete major upgrade now Once I have my new one built, I will upload pictures and perhaps short video of my new rig thats in process of being built

4 7990s are not going to be enough to run the latest games on 6 monitors at 2560x1600 in 3D.
My suggestions for your super rig: (This machine is going to blow your current P4 9500GT monster system out of the water!)
- 2x Intel Core i7-3960X Extreme Edition Sandy Bridge-E 3.3GHz ($2,100)
- 64GB Quad Channel Gskill DDR5 Memory ($1,200) FREE SHIPPING!
- 2x 1500Watt SilverStone PSUs ($640)
- SILVERSTONE Temjin Series TJ11B-W Black Aluminum ATX Full Tower Computer Case ($650)
- 6x Dell UltraSharp U3011 30" 2560x1600 monitors ($8400)
- [URL="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820220601]6x Patriot Wildfire PW480GS25SSDR 2.5" 480GB SATA III ($6840)[/URL]
- 6x 7990s ($5100)
- Team of Engineers to build custom dual socket Motherboard ($200k - $500k)
- Team of Developers to write custom AMD drivers that support "dodeca-fire", thats 12 GPUs ($50k - $100k)
Assuming you possibly have friends in the industry that are willing to develop the last two for free we are talking anywhere between $24,930 and $624,930.
If money is not a limiting factor I'd say you've got a killer upgrade on the horizon!
