Is now available in the GPU section but when can we expect the 780's to be an option?

I believe TRI-SLI technology was officially released today and that is why DSO has those options today. The 780i motherboards are set to release on December 17th.
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star.

Too bad it didn't release on time, I'd rather have that just in case I wanted to add a second GT.

Triple SLI will work with the 680i series. NVIDIA has provided us with the special triple SLI connectors that work with the 680i motherboards. PC Perspective (http://www.pcper.com/) should have a review of Triple SLI up using a Digital Storm system soon!

What would the the appropriate PSU size, only the 1200W thermaltake? And would you be able to deal with the heat on just air?

 
Personally I just want a mobo with pci 2.0 so I don't have to lose power with the backwards compatibility in the next 2-3 years.

I do.  I missed out on the "wow" factor contained in the old games I play, seeing as I could only play them in DX 7 and with the settings set on low.  I can't beleive how much more content they have, now that I can play all of them in DX 9 with all the goodies turned up full.
 
I mostly play racing sims:  GTL, GT2, rFactor, and fps: COD2 online.
 
Love my new DS system!!

I bet the 1k Watt PSU would be fine for most video cards to run in triple SLI. Though I haven't had the chance to check that out for myself yet.
