Don, I heard overclocking on the 590's was a bad idea - moreover voltage control killed the cards in a lot of cases? Will it be at all similar for the 690?
In other news, I did the same thing Don
This is my upcoming WC build: Not sure what to name this beast yet.
Cosmos II case with a P8Z77 premium motherboard:
and this:
I'm going to beat your 3dmark11 690 score, just wait.

Ok, time for a showdown of absurd proportions.
Blackened: since January, you've owned 580SLI, 7970 Crossfire, 680SLI, and 690.
vs.
DonKarnage: since May, he's owned 7850, 680, 670, 670SLI, and 690.
Who wins in GPUs purchased per minute? Which cost more per month/day/hour? Which wins in price/performance?

Wow, I just noticed the other thread on 6/13 with the 670 sli testing... You sure change your mind quick.lol
Not to mention the 7850 you had beforehand.
Terms, don't forget about me. I have to admit though, my upgrade fever passed 2 weeks ago. Very happy with my setup and not upgrading until Piledriver.
Jeez Don, liquid cooled quad SLI is going to be a beastly setup. The Antec 1200 isn't too great for water cooling, any plans to change your case?
Don, sorry about the little one, I know what it's like.
Also, you change hardware more than some people change their underwear lol, I'm jelly. You too Blackened. At least we can all buy pointless stuff (relatively) and not argue about red or green
Buying piledriver to heat your room or play solitaire? Only thing its good for
Dude, I love the cosmos II so much. It is so easy to work in, everything is screwless, it has tons of cable management, tons of room to work with, and awesome air flow. Oh-- best part -- you can fit a 360 rad up top for WC, and dual 240s at the bottom. And there's a ton of room in the front for a pump / res! Which is why I got it
It did cost a little too much and its big (48 pounds) but it is hands down the best case i've ever seen! You should definitely get one
Winters get cold here and it will be around that time. Spring I will have Haswell. Its the perfect plan for an upgrade path. LOL
I have a little hope here for AMD.
Don, real sorry to hear about the little one.
Don't feel bad about buying a Cosmos II. I've never looked back. Helluva case & I can't imagine it not supporting any configuration you need it to. I've got Tri 7970s with ease.
Don/blackened anyone of you getting the 7990 when its out?
