I want to break my new pc

[omargalea]

i just bought a new pc with following specs
Motherboard - Asus Striker II Extreme
Graphics - 3 x 9800 GTX 512 MB Ram
Processor - Q6600 2.66Ghz Interl Pentium Overclocked to 2.85
Ram - 4Gb DDR3
OS - Vista home premium 64 Bit

Results - after over 28 hours of swearing my head off, the system finally turned on, after finding out that a scew on the motherboard was earthing with the case. I found a reference on a forum after i lost hope.

Anyway after installing everything and than finally updated all drives, I could never get a bigger disappointment when i run - Frontline - Fuel for War, Turning point and even Hour of victory.
The pc just lags and lags and lags, i put everything to a minimum and it still lags, i really had enough.

I spent the last 3 days looking for an anwser and yet after i tried all solutions i am still at the bottom of the pit, I simply cannot play any kind of game. anyone can help PLEASE???

well just ask me what information you need and i give it to you np.
Hmmm
I can try one video card but its a lost cause I am sure the problem is software related more than anything

ok i tried everything and i really mean everything.
I took the pc appart again, removed windows vista and installed xp, made all the possible updates.

Funny thing is once it was all updated i kept getting a nvidia message that the video cards are not getting enough power, I tested the Power supply (1000W) and it gives more than enough power. Anyway funny thing after all the updates it turns out windows XP does not support x3 cards.

Well again to bits and installed Windows Vista where i seen a better performance over all from XP and installed the games all over and guess what? no improvement from before.

So i started, no overclocking, 2x gb ram, 1 x 9800GTX games was a mess at low graphics
installed an other 2gb, no improvement
installed 2x 9800GTX - No improvement what so ever.

Well now i cannot be arsed to install the last card i know its not going to do anything at all.

So I believe now that its either a real motherboard scam or the graphic cards are pure crap.

If anyone has any other suggestions please let me know.

Oh btw i installed assassin's creed, i can tell you this thing worked like a bloody 486 if any of you remember them
