Anyways, Picking up another 8800GTX for SLi and 2GB more of RAM around Dec time and was wondering if the PSU could Handle them, and can the case actually take 2 8800GTX
 
I think this is a better way to spend your 900 :)

It has a better motherboard, a great aftermarket CPU cooler, cheaper RAM that will perform the same, a better case, and the best power supply. You'd enjoy this very much.

SLi is NEVER worth it. It doubles the cost and gets you between -15 and 50% improvement in games, especially if you're not running a silly resolution like that native to a 30" monitor. It never doubles performance. More RAM would be OK though.

In short you take a screenshot, upload it to a web host, then paste the image's URL between tags.

The specific method I use is this:
  1. Reduce window width until the scroll bar appears at the bottom of the page. This means that the list is as narrow as it's going to get which is helpful to readers who don't have wide monitors. I'm occasionally forced to browse from 1024 x 768 and looking at fullsize screenshots from larger monitors breaks the forum by widening the page.
  2. I use the ScreenGrab extension for Firefox to capture a lossless .png of the part of the page I want to save.
  3. I open the .png in the GIMP and save it as a lossless .gif. This typically reduces file size by about 50%, usually from about 180 kiB to 70 kiB. This can be helpful for readers with slower Internet access.
  4. I then upload the .gif to imageshack.us.
  5. Finally I paste the "direct link" URL between my
    list]:)
