I saw those a couple days ago myxx, increadible.
So who can run this beast? I see:
Houdini (after watercooling/plugging in 25 other connections can remember to plug his video card in), Deadly (with the aid of his benevolent mother),
Rom (if he can manage to get his 15th evga card rma complete),
Pork (if he decides to really grow some of those socially conservate cahunas and quit talking about a rig for 3 yrs and actually buy one),
and Law (who should have actually bought a gaming laptop since he actually could run the game but is never actually home to play it but when he is, can't remove himself from the window where he patiently awaits his neighbor with the giant fanny pack to come pee again so he can snap a picture).

I can play it right now....but it's called life. Unfortunately in my version there is no respawn and it requires me working for a living.
Dragn might as well change the logo of Ti, nobody playing anything but that game once it comes out.

I have the system for 2 weeks now.
E6600 in a Thernaltake Armor case ( the really big one with the 240 mm side fan) and a 800gs w/640 mb ram and the x-fi sound card and 2 gb of ddr2 6400 RAM . I may be a pig but I am a pig with a nice comp not a beast like deadlys or Houdini's (at least my
video card is plugged in )and I am slowly fine tuning this machine as the "tech" at work that put this together has made a few mistakes and did not update the mobo to the lastest BIOS so I am going to get Nyte to help me with that.

I cry tech nerd who has read to many tech manuals and doesn't understand what a metaphore is.
Let me see if we can help you out law:
Sour grapes is the false denial of desire for something sought but not acquired; to denigrate and feign disdain for that which one could not attain. This metaphor originated from the fable The Fox and the Grapes by Aesop, where the protagonist fox fails to reach some grapes hanging high up on a vine, retreats, and says that the grapes are sour anyway.
