So, time to do a build log for my new gaming rig. The primary goal of this rig is to max out BF3 in any way possible. For now 3 GTX 580 3GB HC cards are ordered. I will be adding one more before BF3 is out though. The hardware specs of this rig are: Evga SR-2 (2) Xeon 5670's 24GB Corsair Dominator Ram @ 2000 mhz (3) Evga GTX 580 3gb HC cards in SLI 9 C300 64gb SSD's raid 5 2 intel 510 120gb ssd's raid 0 3 WD 1TB HDD's in raid 5 Little Devil v8 Case Final Pics:

Man, this is way too much power for 3 u2411's! 3xu3011 FTW! For 3 u2411's, 2 OC 580's definitly are enough.
