I am specing a machine that needs to last 3 years. I want it to still be a decent performer in 3 years time.

Which will be the better option

E6700 with 2 x 8800GTX in SLI

or

QX6700 with 1 x 8800GTX

It needs to last 3 years because thats how long it will take me to pay it :p

Plus i get 3 years onsite maintenance so if any goes wrong i am guaranteed to keep the machine going....

I try to build the best machine i can at the moment to give myself the best chance of a resonable machine in 2 1/2 years time ;)
 
Its not a work scheme...

I have bought 2 machines from a Manufacturer that i cant name here for obvious reasons....

I use them because there customer support is first class...(and trust me i need good customer support ;) )

I would like to love to spec up and build myself a machine.. but to be perfectly honest i am a lazy b*****d so when it goes wrong its much easier to get on the phone and get somebody else to fix it 4 me
 
My current 3 year old rig is

2.8 P4
X800pro 256mb
1gb ram

ok she is 3 years old but she still got plenty of life in her for the kids

and in 3 years time i will probably do the same again
