Multi Monitor Gaming System

Looks good. You are still left with 9k for SSD.

Yipeee... will buy 60GB SSD for OS only... or will wait for Intel 510 SSD...

msi 6950 TFII dont have dual bios switch.

TFIII has it.

I am not able to find double bios thing on MSI 6950 Page...
*www.msi.com/product/vga/R6950-Twin-Frozr-III-Power-Edition-OC.html#/?div=Overview

Then OP has to proceed with extreme caution. Anyway with 2x6950, there will be little practical need at this moment.

yea right, I am not aiming for extreme performance, and If I have to flash this, I will wait 1 year....

dont get TFII get reference models.

Why reference model ? I think MSI 6950-Twin-Frozr offers better cooling and design....

^is there a need of unlock?
TFII is cool running, silent. you can oc the 6950 to match 6970.
and 6950 cfx has enough muscle to handle that high resolution.

Yes we can overclock it to get 10% extra performance... and I play only Counter strike source, where GPU doesn't matter much...

err... then why are you going for such a high-end CFX setup?

^^ Rightly said. A single 6850 will do the job. It supports 3 monitors in single mode and can definitely play counter strike source with ease. If the need arises, by another 6850 or 6870 and cf them.

It feels good when you have lots of power...

In 2008 I built my first gaming system: Intel Q6600 + ATI Radeon 4850 + 4GB RAM

In 2009 I upgraded to i7 920 + ATI 5850 + 6GB RAM

In 2010 It was Intel Core i7 980X + 12GB RAM + 2 x Nvidia GTX 480 SLI + 160GB Intel SSD + Lian-Li A77F + 1500 Watt SMPS + 2200VA APC UPS

In 2011 Multi-LCD System

2012 - Ivy Bridge or AMD Bulldozer....

After spending Approx 3.5 Lacs last year, this year i am spending only 1.75 Lacs and will upgrade next year to Ivy Bridge or AMD....
