So my brother just had me build a system almost identical to mine... it is as follows.
Intel Core i7 920 OC'd to 3.6ghz
P6T Deluxe x58 MB
6gb Corsair Dom's DDR3
EVGA GTX285
300gb Velociraptor HDD
Antec 1200 case
Win dows Vista Ultimate 64bit SP2 Beta
The question is, he has some extra money to burn... the choices are....
a 2nd 300gb Velociraptor HDD, to run in a RAID0 Config.. $200 shipped from Newegg.
Or...
a second EVGA GTX285 to run in SLI - $310 shipped
What choice would you make, and why?
He plays alot of games, like I do..including iRacing.com's motorsport simulator, Wordl at War COD, Mirrors Edge, Crysis, etc etc....
He also uses it for alot of web browsing, file managing, movies/video, etc....
