$2500 Rig for MMOs and Movies

http://www.digitalstormonline.com/comploadsaved.asp?id=489903

I thought about the SSD. What advantage during MMO game-play would it provide? Faster FPS or just faster load time in-game?

Adding $260 for a SSD is possible. A quick load into a game after a disconnect would be nice and desirable.

Mmo's are generally always gonna be less graphically demanding so the system requirements don't scare away potential customers.

That being said, the 580s price vs performance just isn't worth it. Especially for any current mmo. Just my two cents.

Stop adding the upgraded fans, they are loud and not needed.

Ask DS specifically for this fan to be added to the side, so you endup with 3 x 200mm fans:

haf 200mm non led fan

for mmo all you need is a 560, it won't let you down and can be oced to match 570 performance. a 570/580 is really a waste for mmo, you won't notice a difference in mmo at that res between 560/570/580.

OK - no zalman fans - just the haf 200mm non-led fan - got it.
