I am still not sure what is with the boot up problems I had yesterday though. no video after turning on. I took out one gpu and set the cpu to stock, because I just got a 3d printer and this thing needs to be stable. I dont want it to crash in the middle of a print.

a 3d printer? that's awesome! too bad i can't justify buying one for myself :P

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.

Just like my friend said:

 

"If it looks stupid, but it works, its not stupid."
