Hey OCF, I am planning to order the components to my brand new(and first) gaming rig/PC Build in the coming days and it hit me. I was originally going to included 2 GTX 580 Lightening Xtreme edition cards from msi in my system but then I found out that the keppler set of cards are coming out in the 4th quarter and it got me wondering. Should I buy a set of 6970s and then purchase the keppler cards for christmas as a gift or something or just stick with 2 high end gtx 580s. Please leave your thoughts below because I will be purchasing my computer soon. By the way if you hadn't already noticed this will be used for gaming and media. Thats why I am aiming for a sli or crossfire setup.
PC Specs:
Intel Core i7 2600k 1155
Asus Maximus IV Extreme P67
Corsair AX1200 PSU
WD Caviar Black 2TB
Intel 510 120 GB SSD
Lite-On Blu Ray Burner
Antec Kuhler H20 920
Corsair Dominator 8GB
HAF X Blue Edition (only on newegg)
2 XFX 6970s and upgrading to GTX 680s or whatever the highest end single card solutions is or 2 MSI GTX 580 Lightening Xtreme Editions now and upgrading in 2 or 3 years depending on how advanced games become and my cards cant handle it.
Thanks for your time and advice,
