I'm going to build a gaming monster tower that can do anything that is thrown at it, I'll list what hardware I'm going to use for sure, but I need help with the rest to give it a proper load-out.
MoBo: EVGA Classified
CPU: i7 975 OCed to 4.5GHz
A Quad loop Liquid cooling system to cool everything, One loop on the CPU, One on the North/South Bridge, One on the first two GPU's and the last one on the other GPU's.
The case is going to be a totally custom build from scratch.
PSU: 1600W Ultrax3
Now here is the problem I need help with RAM choosing, GPU layout, and how to do the HDD's/SSD's
GPU Option 1. 3x285GTX 2GB SSC's and one 9800GT 1GB for Physx.
GPU Option 2. 2x295GTX CO-OP's and for over kill Physx a 285GTX 2GB SSC.
Which one will offer the most and yes I know option two is over kill.
Now for RAM, what RAM would offer best speeds at a full 12GB load out on all three channels?
For the Storage set, I want to have a dictated OCZ 250GB at 250MBs read for the OS, due to me wanting room for OS intensive Programs.
Next I want a duel Storage plan of two to four of those OCZ 250GB SSD's for programs, and Two to Five SATA/SAS drives in a Internal RAID cage, for back up of the computer. If I go with option 2 for the GPU's I can do a RAID card, other wise I have to use the MoBo RAID, or use a PCI riser cable and mount the card in a different way.
The Drives will be a flash card reader and two Blu-Ray Reader Writer drives.
WiFi will be a PCI x1 Wireless N card.
So what Can you all do to help me with the GPU's HDD/SSD, and RAM Loadout?
