Does this all look compatible to you guys? any recommendations?

I will be happy to wait a few months before upgrading gfx card(s).
prob should throw in a case fan or 2.

What do ye think I will be able to OC this up to?

Thanks,

Brian.

The graphics card isn't great. You really need to change it for something better.

im probably going to buy a 6800gt in couple of months, just want the bare minimum in pci-express till then :]

I'd get the DFI SLI rather than the Asus, apart from that and the graphic card, it looks good

Does anyone know if the thermalright xp-120 is fully compatible with the dfi lanparty SLI.

I think the fourth DIMM is blocked by it

otherwise i think DFI is the way to go. Outrageous money for a mobo tho :]

Get the XP-90. Shouldnt have a problem with the DFI. The temps are only 1-2C difference.

Mmmmmm................. linkie for the HS
Seems it supports 3200+ and upwards so would do some googling.
whats the cooling spec on that case? if your goin SLi you may need a bigger case with better air flow

EDIT: if you go water cooling get a better case(window),you want to look at your beauty in action dont you

id agree, everything else looks good

If you're going with the DFI-SLi then go for the XP-90, the Xp-120 has had some fitting problems using RAM slots 2+4, which are the recommended ones for Dual Channel.
