Hi MrNoSpeak,

Good job on your build. I agree with DST4ME, it is a waste to spend the money for the X79 platform and not buy a power supply that supports Tri-SLI. Get the 1200w Corsair power supply.

I don't know anything about 3D but would more Vram help even at 1920 x 1080?

If I foget about the 3D and go with a 1920x1200 Display would it be better to go with the EVGA 3 GB cards over the 1.5 GB cards.
