----------------------------------------
I havent built a pc by hand since the 90's, but I think I built a decent machine to play games on with high setting w/o SLI. 2 years down the road I could go SLI for a hundo or so. Please let me know what you think for my choice and suggestions for OC'ing. I don't want to benchmark w/the best, just lead the way for future gaming.
I currently have a q6600 and SLI EVGA 8800gt's @ 3.2ghz on cheap HD's w/raid 0.
-------------------
I'm expecting quick boot on the SSD, and possibly keeping 1 game on the SSD w/ the OS.
How far can I expect to OC my cpu safely for 24/7 ops while I'm in afghanistan and my wife needs to be able to turn it on and use it?
Basically I want a pimp gaming pc (hence the vid card), that my wife can use 24/7 for school, faceboook, skype, etc.. w/o a hicup. I'll OC the crap out of it when I'm home, but back it down so she can run it w/no problems
