    At first I thought, 'Where is the monitor?' Then I lost it.

    Aside from the awesomeness of the "case", I'm sure we'll see a more awesome PC within a year.

    Though, one thing I've wondered about three-monitor arrangements... for people willing to get three monitors and string them together, can't somebody manufacture just one really long, slightly concave monitor? They know people would buy it.

    Only 900 vertical pixels?

    That desk is pretty sweet, wonder how many different Ikea products it would take to cobble one together.

    .... You realize black only goes up to 2tb right? Don't know why you wouldn't want green for a storage drive anyway.

    I know this is a meme, but http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpC_4...el_video_title

    Some crazy German dude built a more powerful pc than the one above (obviously not as visually impressive), SR2 mobo with 2 xeon 5690 CPU's, 12gb DDR at 2000mhz at 7-9-7 and 4x SLi GTX580 3gb models... Just so he can run Crysis.
    Runs it at 2560x1600 with 16xQAA and all max settings, and it still only got like 75-80fps average. Honestly was expecting high 100, possibly 200's average with that kind of system. I'm completely jelly.

    EDIT: Later in the video he runs it at 8024x1600 at 8xQAA and seems to get around 40-50fps average. Jesus.

    Pretty sure that's just Crysis's engine showing rather than lack of power, it's very hard to get high FPS in the game. That system is kinda stupid anyway and seems to be built for 'just because' (if was built purely for gaming, disregard if he's just gaming on it because he can), very few games get a boost from 4->6 threads (virtually none are coded for 6 cores) so 12 cores/24 threads is a tad overkill.

    But yeah with SLI 580 and i7 950@4GHz you only get ~65 FPS average at 1920x1200 / AAx16 so ~80% larger screen and twice the number of GPUs + small boost from CPU and 75-80 sounds about right.
