Sandy is still pretty good.

 

480 SLI however.. (@OP it is highly likely that 750w PSU will not support a 480SLI build, let alone the metric ♥♥♥♥tons of heat those things will put out)

Error: 410

True. I went with Ivy but the Fermi 1st Gen is absurd (pardon me for voicing my opinion) for such a build.

Sandy is still relevant. People don't give CPU's the credit the deserve for their potential longevity (5-6 years instead of 2-3). and 2 480's are still beast and can max out most games today @ 1080(and eat power and cook your house like no tomorrow)

Corsair 600T White | Gigabyte Z77-UD3H | Intel Core i5-2500k | 8GB Gskill Ares@1600MHz | Gigabyte G1 GTX970 | OCZ ZT 550 | Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB | Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB | Samsung 840 EVO 250GB (boot) | Full Custom Loop | NZXT HUE
