I think you were fussed by the size of your epeen ;)

I expect you've learnt a lot and learnt that the hard way with this build, next time I suspet you won't make as many mistakes with building a computer with this budget.

TRI SLI in my opinion wasn't worth it, and as a result you've had a lot of hassle with it, you could have whacked 2x 295's, and not struggled with the problems, and wouldn't of seen much of a reduction in frames.

Was interesting watching you're build evolve and you're stumbles along the way, as I said you've hopefully learnt from your mistakes :)

Some more pics of how the build looks now ?

I dont see that i have made that many mistakes, the SSD's that i bought were faulty lol and i wanted TRI SLI rather than 2 x 295s as they performed better in the games i wanted to play... i was going for 2 x 295s originally and someone here directed me to a post comparing quad (2 x 295's) vs TRI SLI with the 280's and the 280's were superior i mean sure not by much but what we be the point in spending all that money and getting something not as good. No one could have predicted the NVLDDMKM..SYS errors, alright they happen a lot but it should have been ok and as for the case the tri sli does fit in the case it was simply the case and mobo didn't line up, how on earth would i have found that out ? Most posts just say they have 7 expansion slots which was enough, i even posted it all on here before i bought anything and even people confirmed it should be ok so i bought it. I wouldn't label them as my mistakes, simply just bad luck but hey thats my opinion.

Thanks for your support anyways mate i see where you are coming from.
 
This has to be the most bizarre thread I have read on this forum.

First the flaming for the OP wanting to spend a lot of money. Then the mishaps and changing of cases, the blue screens, the guy who posts every 2 minutes asking how turboduck is getting on. The dude with the helpful insults. The guy who agrees the OP is on an epeening session, pops in a few insults of his own, then turns good and potentially solves the problem; and still the thread remains open! What drama lol!

To be honest I can't see how this rig is being that adventurous, yeah it's all high end hardware but for people to come on and say "don't be suprised it doesn't work" is just plain dumb really. The guys at OCUK build rigs like this all the time, he has just been unlucky with a few things.

Hope you get it sorted out in the end turbo and don't forget the pics and benchies when you do (if you dare to post them and flamed again!)

this made me rofl so much you are spot on mate, thanks for summerising lol it has been a pretty crazy build but its been a laugh and thats all that matter to me :D thanks for your support, just got in from work now and going to give this all one last crack
 
yeah i too am amazed at the amount of interest this post has generated, its really weird lol anyways im still going through tweaking the bios, stupid Asus mobo sets like very mother ****** setting to AUTO lol so its taking a while to get everything right will post back as soon as i have anything other than BSOD's/freezes
