click on the config you like, change the psu to a 1000w corsair if you like to be able to do sli/cf in the future.
tho I'm not so sure you will need sli in the future. as far "upgrade my cooling system" what do you mean by that? your cooling is Noctua and it does not need to get updated. Edited by DST4ME - 31 Mar 2010 at 3:47pm |

If I had to guess, I would assume he's saying upgrade to liquid cooling.
