Hello all,

Done a quick build below, was unsure on the monitor.

Obviously both easy to change: case, keyboard and screens are subject to opinion and I can't say I've had experience with any of them I'm afraid. Personally, having read reviews, I love that case! But things like that really are up to your personal taste. As is SLI and multi monitor etc...
 
my attempt. the only thing im not happy with is the PSU. the one i now recommend for SLI 580's, the lepa 900W 80+ gold, has disappeared, so with that gone and the OCZ gold rated ones making funny noises im not sure what to go for PSU wise
