Hi,

I haven't built a computer in eight years but am preparing to give it
a shot. I'm a bit of a gamer and sick to death of running everything
on low graphics settings. I've been doing a lot of reading and am
pretty interested in the dual-GPU thing. Do people have experience
with this? How much does it boost performance? Anyway, here's what
I've come up with. I would welcome any thoughts or feedback.

*CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400
*Motherboard: nForce 750i SLI
*Power Supply: Ultra LSP 650-watt
*RAM: 4GB Patriot Dual Channel Viper DDR2 memory 1066 MHz
*Video Cards: GeForce 9600 GT (two of them)
*Hard Drives: 320 GB Seagate Barracuda SATA HD (two for RAID 0
configuration)
*DVD ROM: Sony DRU190A 20x DVD rewriteable drive

Thanks so much.
RR

I would seriously forgo the raid setup.
