the psu is not crap have you ever owend one ? its rather heavy and thats usaly a quaility indicator, and ways almost as much as my xbox 360. when it blows up ill leanr to trust you , does that sound fair?

:LL yes im back, and im also rather sorry
i shouldnt have asked that question, i new the answer.
and im sure almost all of you will be happy to know the 9800gx2 is not available anymore.
some have judged and given me a bad name, but i know i havent bean helping myself to that judgement.
i thought i got banned for as it said "personal attack"
heres the story,
PapaLazaru rtm'd my comment witch was a reply to his comment of "youre 14 you clearly know nothing"

i replyed to that, and i included what he had said without the quote ing of it, therefore he was able to report my comment as targeted at him "youre 14, you clearly know nothing"
and i belive thats why i was banned for personal attak :L

an extra £5 for a hd5830 will get you:
-a faster performing card
-single gpu (dual gpu cards rely heavily on drivers and games being coded properly)
-no microstutter for the reason mentioned above
-dx11
-much less power consumption (which im guessing your parents pay the bill for...)
-a much more reliable card

ITs off the clearance and that means im not getting it, looking at the new stuff on the clearance some of it looks so much better than the 9800gx2.
Firstly i noticed now i could get a ati hd 5830 for £70 + postage

anyone knows what they compare to 786mb gtx 460 as there only about £80 on the clearance at the moment?
bare in mind im probably only going to run 1 dvi 17" moniter at a fairly low resolution "1080 by 1280" or sumink

Frankly Zac, i thought i was trying to prod you in the right direction with your previsou threads, and i genuinely was interested in (and trying to defend) your dual xeon build, but if you really cant see past your stubbornness and look at all of these reasons and all of these people warning you from past experience that you're making a bad descision then god help you.

and this is before ive taken the PSU in to account...

Well, honestly you have and you did, and i thank everyone for the help although in my previus comments it doesnt look like it, but haveing a 15 day bann gave me time to think about my attitude and the way i was abusing the help i asked for.
I did have a lot on my mind when i was bieng ignoratn and was i little depressed, but im back on track now and loving life at the moment.

as from now im going to try hard to listen to the great advice you all give, Thanks OCUK and the great people hear

lol. this kid has the same attitude as those consol3 nobs that think buying a 1080p tv makes the graphics better and refuse to listen to anyone

NO really No, :L im really i lot smarter then that, but it doesn't show when im angry

OMG is this the same guy who put thermal paste on the wrong side of his cpu and blamed ocuk for selling 'dangerous' paste? Sure sounds the same....

Urm defiantly not, something simalar did happen with my dual xeon build and my motherboard pins for cpu socket lga 771, but this was down to me being a prat :L as i took the cpu of without cleaning it or the cage and when i took it of some dripped into the pins, and i couldnt get it out therfore shorting my motherboard :L, and so i sold up and started on my x6 Zosma build.
But that was a serius mistake, i guess its all down to experienced, and atleast know i know never to do anything like that again, and im evan using non conductive ic diamond in my new build just in case.

Thanks again, Zac
