Thats one hell of a system!  The only thing I'm kinda worried about is the cpu, but I guess your planning an upgrade to that :)

Those are the 1GB Vram 7850's aren't they?

If so I don't see much point in running them in crossfire, most games that could make use of the extra performance will be held back by the vram.

Personally I would have just sold the HD 7850 when you were considering an upgrade and gone for a HD 7950/7970.

No they are 2gb with a core clock of 860mhz and they run absolutely perfectly, I get great frame rates in every game that I play (which is generally on ultra and at 60fps+ with the occasional drop below 60). I'll post some scores if you like.

I applaud you for making a custom case, but the tape to hide the colored cables is...interesting.
