Wow, that's awesome, Lena.  My cable went SPDIF and spilled some bits into my DAC.

but on a serious note, maybe a 560ti would be ok or something similiar and then DUALIE it up. I have 850w of power i need to use up otherwise i feel like i didn't get my moneys worth.

 
Maybe get one 580 instead of two 560s - some games screw up with profiles/SLI/crossfire etc. One ultra-powerful card is always better than two mid-range imo. Alternatively just get one 570 - great value for performance (only 5 or so fps less than the big brother)

Agreed...Crossfire or SLI is best used with a 30" monitor at 2560 x 1600 resolution or similar. Since we are mostly getting console ports, the extra power isn't always worth the extra cost. (or maybe multi-monitor setups)

You think I'm sexist?

That was a bit ridiculous, I know several homosexual males that like their women large and loud.  I notice he didn't even mention that possibility.  Maybe he can't type homosexual?

this is true, i am no gay panda. In fact, last night I just got me a hooker. I did not confirm whether it was a tranny or not, but lets just assume it wasn't.

I hope this is what you mean by "tranny"...but probably not.
