Alright so im building some super sketch build and im trying to figure out what GPU(s) I should use. Should I run just a Nvidia Geforce 7900 GTX or should I also add in a BFG Geforce 7600 GT OC for Phys-x.

if you are going for max sketchyness then add a PhysX card in there, it wont do anything in most titles but it will definatly add to the sketchyness

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is ~~play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally)~~ ~~watch YT and write essays...~~ nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.
