| Re: 3XS Great White - Dream PC Winner 2008 lovely pics! i would want to see a simple 2-way SLI configuration where you would use the same tubing for the vga/cpu, but a black 10mm for chipsets etc |

| Re: 3XS Great White - Dream PC Winner 2008 Am I really seeing three water-cooled graphics cards? I do love the tubing, nice contrast going on. I tell you what, this could be the prettiest pc ever if it were put in a dust-free case and never touched. Otherwise the dust and finger smudges would ruin the sheen pretty quickly. On a practical level, a matte black finish like on the IBM thinkcentres is where the money is. Come on, spill the spec so we can drool.  |

 | Re: 3XS Great White - Dream PC Winner 2008 Yeah, a triple loop was gonna be tight in there no matter what, but i was on about the cards, can get little things to go between the blocks so you dont need tubing. 4th pic - dont tell me its running that in the store is it?  Get some games on it !!! |
