Not really different than the old rig besides new watercooling parts and new Corsair RAM.

What case is that?

Impressive looking rig you got there Miniz

you've got a liquid cooled optical?

if i compare the inside of that with mine, then i have plenty of room to sleep in my case

enough to put a considerable dent in my wallet PCM, actually it depends on what its doing as to if its drinking lots. Crysis' opening weekend cost me a lot

I'm more interested in knowing how it can run without hard drives.

Pffft! Just 2.7. You're letting the side down with that.

Quote from Jakg :

Cooler Master HAF 932. Yes, it does not look as nice as its bigger brother, the Cooler Master ATCS 840, but it is well worth the money at $150 with how well it is designed!

your right it does need more, but im going through a redundancy atm so its going to have to wait

If/when you are looking to upgrade I'd suggest looking at the Proavio editBox line. You can get them in up to 10 disc variations and there are a few different interfaces available too. I have the editBox 8 PM and it's very good. The only downside I would say is that it's a little noisy but it's kept well out of the way. If you only have a Win32 OS you will only be able to create volumes smaller than 2TB too (just something to think about).

I use vista x64 due to the triple SLI config, was thinking of loading it with 5 1tb drives, or 4 1tb's with a performance drive covering my boot and gaming partitions.

all the drives in there atm are 7200rpm barrys and even tho that may not sound like much, with carefull data organising they still fly like shit off a shovel.

Well, I know it's not any 1337, but I have only cca 840€ However, I'm sure it will be much different than now.

Hmm you can get a better computer for 850£.

That is what I'm getting after Christmas and it's going to be just about 850-900£. I know it doesn't have a ubber monitor but eh... IF you keep some parts of your old computer like the HDD and Case and maybe Monitor, you can get a pretty decent computer for 850£.
