Welcome to the forums.

Looks like a very nice setup, crossfire 5870's will be very sweet.

Holy cable management.. Get some cable ties in there, it'll show off the hardware even more

Make sure you get a picture with the second 5870 in there as well

I maybe wrong here, someone will no doubt correct me. But i think your PSU needs to be turned over as it's acting as a waste bin at the mo, just asking for crap to fall into that fan.

Other than that, great little setup you have there guvna

Pretty sure he has the PSU the right way up.

I'm not jealous at all of that setup

Nice rig, 2x5870 wow! Putting a i7 920 rig together myself now in an antec 900 case, it looks like a tight fit with those 5870's. Will be nice to see a pic with some cable management. The 900 is a pain sorting out cables without drilling holes in your case.

bigjimmyauk · 18 Feb 2010 at 03:11

OMG please do some cable management that thing will turn to toast if you can't get no air free flowing through it.It's not hard my first cable management attemp looked awesome look here http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18107689&highlight=bigjimmyauk
