      What are you one of those people who has to have SLi, even though the current generation of cards doesn’t really need to run anything more.

         Metro 2033 certainly runs a helluva lot better with a 5xxx series SLi setup 😛

      A single 570 is overkill as is, for a single 1900×1200 display.

         I haven’t seen benchmarks for a final build of BF3…. but it looks like a beast.
         Why not a single 580 even?
         My point is with a custom machine as pretty as this i’d go completely balls out with the specs too. (not to mention the cpu)

         Actually it’s far from overkill.

         On a rig like that (or similar) you’d get roughly (with everything on full);
         28-30 fps on Metro 2033 (DX11)
         35-36 fps on AvP(DX11)
         35 fps on Crysis Warhead(DX10)

         and so on.

            not true. this is pretty much the same as my new built (i have the i7 2600k, same gpu, motherboard, ram)

            i get 50+ frames on metro and AvP with DX11 everything full.

               No offence but I think I’ll take the word/testings of BmR over yours :S

               Further looking into it; there is no way in hell you’re getting 50+ with everything on full (including tessellation) at 1900×1200. Benchmarks for the 570 using the same or similar rigs are achieving 47-49fps max with the settings only set to high (not full) and with tessellation turned off.

   Looks like it was made from a small guitar amp.

   That is damn cool. Makes me want to really get into case modding and such.

   Just a shame about the choice of a single 570 and the system crippling 750w PSU.

   The more I look at it now, the more I get a Fallout 3 vibe instead of a BF3 vibe, I think it’s the rounded edges of the box (which to me makes it seem dated) and the colour of the lighting.
