S!

If it does not fit I buy a new tower ;) But seriously, a second 5870HD would do just fine and my current PSU would be enough for them with some room to spare.

I have to agree, the 5870 and 5970 are huge cards, make sure your case has plenty of room. I recently bought the SilverStone Raven II case, it's got a great ventilation design as the motherboard is rotated 90 degrees so all peripherals are fixed vertically and it has heaps of 120mm fans. It's a bit funky looking but there is also a plainer version the FT02.

Im going for a AMD Phenom II 965 or a new faster model, AMD 890 chipset Crossfire mobo and ATI/AMD HD5870 (2x) and 8GB RAM for my new rig.

Not willing to spend much more on a Intel based rig and an nVidia card for just a few % more performance.

You cant even say how ATI and nVidia are going to compair yet with SoW at all btw, you just have to wait till the Cards are out, and probably than till SoW comes out to be sure.

WhiteSnake, I run now AMD Phenom II 965 Black Edition (Stock @3.4GHz), AMD 790FX chipset, 5870HD and 8Gb DDR3. Sweet system! Would need these new SSD hard drives for better performance in data transfer :)

VelociRaptor 300GB is a much more reliable solution, more space, cheaper, and almost as fast.

Theres supost to be a new 500GB version comming soon also.

S!

Gonna take a look on that one, thanks for heads up :)
