get the Dual GPU thing from ATI Julian... its said to consume electricity equivalent to 1.5HP when fully loaded haha... even a 1500w PSU is definitely not enough for the whole system.

Steven, out of curiousity, why are you using the term "1.5HP worth of electricity" in that statment? Its confusing the heck out of me.

I agree with what you said though :D

I just don't know the situation is that bad hehe

why?? those GPU's you have can't play Crysis anymore?

I hear METRO 2033 is one of the most demanding games... I keep reading about it haha

It can play Crysis no problem but, I want more speed.

I have more than enough power to run three cards. Not an issue. ATI is nice but, I love my EVGA.

This is why you shouldn't view on a TN. I view it on the EIZO and it's sharp!!! I can tell you that your laptop screen isn't good.

Ya know I got tired of chasing for the latest and greatest when it comes to PC equipment. I use it as long as I can until I feel it's necessary to upgrade. The only thing I would have to upgrade is my video cards or go for more RAM but, I don't need to.
