The question is -- is it worth it?
Haha, for always having 99% usage and not having to worry about SLI drivers and considering I can run it at 1.5GHz/8GHz and out run a 780 and tie a 980, yes it was worth it
Pictures of your computer rigs! Post them here!

That ifi rack is pretty cool looking, just got my Sennheiser HD650s in a few days ago so currently building a wooden stand for my gear. Will post pics if I can get that completed any time soon, only issue is now getting distracted listening to music and not building haha.

Haha, I had two of them! They are still great cards if you aren't trying to run the newest games at the absolute max settings @ 1080p. There are a few games that push past 2GB of VRAM these days, but they are far and few between.
Just so I don't get my picture left out on the 2nd to last post of the last page here it is again
I was expecting someone to ask me what the hell I did to my sound card (Creative ZXR) haha

They were selling out constantly, but it seems they are able to keep them in stock now. That is the most popular model out of the lineup right now. The Zotac cards look like the best, but they use a proprietary module called OC+ and it actually OCs worse than a bone stock NVIDIA model because they have locked the voltages lower than any other brand (this is without any BIOS flashing or anything, just stock all around).

Excellent. Good information and I will monitor Amazon. If a sale occurs, I will update. I generally buy every other generation, so it is time.

Hahaha I just saw your first picture and the first thing that caught my eye was "What are those massive capacitors?!?" That's pretty interesting.

I noticed that, too, but paid more attention to how you sold your SLI 660s for a 980.
Also, I see you use an ASRock mobo. Glad to see I'm not the only one using them!
EDIT: I just took the time to clear out my desk, so I thought it'd be a good time to post a picture of it. My room is usually never this clean and tidy, but if it is, it usually doesn't stay that way very long. Anyways, here it is:
The actual image is pretty huge, so click if you dare. It's kinda messy still, but I didn't really have the time to clean it out completely. Can you name the IEMs (and headphone that I never use) in the image?
CPU: Intel Xeon E3-1230 V2 @ 3.3 GHz (stock) GPU: Colorful GTX 650 Ti BOOST 2GB
RAM: GSkill Ripjaws 16 GB (8 GB x 2)

PSU: Antec VP 650W
System drive: AData something 128GB SSD.

Sadly, no, as much as I liked to own one. These are the ones that supposedly "succeeded" Bionicle, a.k.a. Hero Factory. I was pretty close to gathering the whole set, but then I met Head-Fi...

Oh shiz, if only I had a picture of all the Bionicle sets I used to own... but nope, I had to sell them all for way too cheap. I sold them for $25 at a yard sale, a whole military-size footocker full of parts.... if only I would've pieced everything out (no pun intended).. screw my (at the time) teenage laziness
Small change for my desktop setup..
Excuse the bad picture quality, but I only have access to my phone's camera right now.
