Well, I did it.  Didn't go with the 570's since I had to one up Moz.  I order an EVGA 560 Ti.  Then I ordered another.  :dance:

Bah....well, I guess I would be upset if I even knew what I bought in the first place.  I just bought what you told me to buy... :confused:

Yeah, EVGA/Nvidia released a bunch of cards around that time.  The 570 was a good deal though.  I don't think there is anything faster that has that price point still.  I would have bought a 570 if they were available though.

The SLI 560's are really impressive.  I've installed Crysis to see how it does.  Seems to run smooth with everything turned up.  I put vsync back on and everything looks better since it's not tearing anymore.

Not sure what I want to play next though.

Haven't played it, but haven't read great things about it either.

Well I've finished LA Noire.  I still have a few more things to get before I get the 100% but the main story is done.

I'm not sure what's next.  Portal 2, Infamous 2 or maybe Duke Nukem Forever.

Didn't play anything new lately, i'm gathering parts to upgrade my rig

got a motherboard x58 socket 1366 Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD5
Corsair Dominator DD3 1600 7-7-7-20 6GB triple channel

am still fishing for a CPU and another GTX280 (i found a waterblock cheap for this card and will go SLI with my oter Hydro block GTX 280)

will prolly get i7 930 or 920 and overclock the heck out of it (4GHz is my goal which apparently is achievable easily even aircooled).

then i'll install Win 7 ultimate and get some of the newer games to work (i have a couple of new games that are both hanging/crashing in Win XP so time for an upgrade).

it's not hard to get 4.0Ghz out of a 920.  I have mine set at 4.0 in the bios and an extra 200mhz in the EVGA OC'ed.  I could probably get more but I'm happy with 4.2Ghz.  Mine runs quiet with the hydro.  The GFX scream when pressed and are a lot louder then the CPU/Case fans.

I'd like to get a 970 but I'll wait till their prices drop some.
