"Argumented" is as good an example as any on why people should not waste their time arguing with idiots.

Anyone who thinks T/A is about predicting the market is an idiot. Anyone who rejects T/A because they think it's used to predict the market is a bigger idiot.

The answer is in the brokerage agreement you signed before your account was opened.

I have to agree. After doing a trial I got peppered with constant hard-sell emails from them. Came across as some sort of pathetic escalation sell campaign.

Salesmen at least get paid for spewing tripe. Scat's worse than that, he's a fanboy who does it for free...

Forget Acronis, or any commercial backup software for that matter. There are plenty of opensource alternatives that are better, more stable and won't hold your data hostage if you have to do a restore: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/ http://www.bacula.org/en/ http://www.clonezilla.org/

My build, minus the 2TB HD & backup software and a Gigabyte UD7 instead of the Asus WS checks in @ $3,248. The price of the motherboards is a wash, but once you add in the $120 for the drive and backup SW you're at $3,368. And, there's also the issue with not knowing which 3GB GTX580...

Agreed. Any vendor that "gives" you a 3 year warranty is flat-out telling you that they're using cheap hardware and have an actuarial expectation of failure on one or more components. Screw that. Lean how to "build" your own computer or find some high school kid and tell him if he builds...

2nd that. Either 'K' part currently has the best bang for the buck out there, especially after you overclocked it, which is trivial.

If you were using a 135w first generation i7 along with 3 high-end video cards, then yes, water cooling would be the way to go. But, the 2600K at 95w is about 30% cooler. It also manages the cores dynamically, so it will use even less power and generate less heat as a result. The video...

You don't need water cooling for an i7-2600K and I already gave you a link to a configuration that will give you want you asked for, you just need to have someone build it for you.

"The now largely-destroyed Kamaishi City in Japan spent $1.5 billion to construct the world's largest sea wall. The municipality deserves a refund." http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-501465_162-20043500-501465.html

No, the cards were not "designed for the financial industry." History The Quadro line of GPU cards emerged in an effort at market segmentation by NVIDIA. In introducing Quadro, NVIDIA was able to charge a premium for essentially the same graphics hardware in professional markets, and direct...

The MSI board has as many restrictions as slots, it's really a non-starter for video. The best one I've found was the Asus P6T7 WS SuperComputer: http://usa.asus.com/Motherboards/Intel_Socket_1366/P6T7_WS_SuperComputer/ But, it also can only do 3x16 or 4x8. It's the perfect solution...

If you're happy with the NVS series, fine. But, there are higher performing, fanless cards out there that cost much less. Here's one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121448 IMHO, I don't see the point in spending nearly twice as much for a card that delivers...

There is a very limited number of choices in the x1 video card space. None of the ones I'm familiar with can drive two monitors and they're typically more expensive than a PCIx card with equivalent GPU.

Would be interested to know which one(s) you've found that can do 4x16 as I've only found a few LGA 1366 boards than can do 3x16.

If you really hate spending more than you have to and you're really serious about what you're using a computer for then would you mind giving us a bit more detail on what you're going to do with it that requires an i7-2600K and 3 GTX 580's?

The TDP of a GTX 580 is about 245w, more if it's overclocked. With a 1KW P/S you've only got about 250w left for the CPU, motherboard, HD, etc. You really need a 1250-1350w P/S at a minimum for 3 of them and a 1500w is probably a better bet.
