| jlrx said: I have an i7-3930k and I have 2 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130790 GPU's in my gaming PC I realized I had too much disposable money and decided to switch out my 1920x1200 monitors for 1920x1080 (cant find 1920x1200 in 3D monitors) (btw it is the 3DS which provoked my desire to switch to 3D gaming on the PC, which I had never really been interested in and now enjoy quite a bit) So I am gaming on a system with an i7-3930k asus p9x79 deluxe, 2x GTX 690's with 2x SSD drives on the boot and for games, 32GB DDR3 2133 It is doubtful any conceivable game in the next 5 years or more will tax this system, but who knows. Anyway, I say all that to say, yeah, you don't need it, but you want it, I certainly did. |
That is a very impressive setup for sure. I don't have that urge to spend my money on something like that though.
The only thing that will push this setup in the next few years is 3 X 3D vision monitor setup..
For anything else you literally won't see any difference compared to a setup which would cost $1000+ less.
To me doing this is like bringing a tank to a knife fight...hella cool but kinda takes a thrill out of the fight. :)
I do think SSD's are a good spend. I have 4 120 GB SSDs and I've been playing with different configurations. Currently I am using a single 120 for boot drive and 3 in RAID 0 for gaming. Games load in like 3 seconds, its great...
