    Nope. Probably won't need it but- Yes, I could, but from what I understand you get more efficient performance out of 2 ram cards rather than 8, as it has to deal with load/power distribution.

    2nd: I'm waiting for the day when we can run 2 os's simultaneously on one mobo without an emulator. These 8 cores can be hard to fill sometimes!

    If you invest in Socket 2011 and want a 3930k I can probably sell you one for like $400. I want to upgrade to a 4930k.

    You want a monitor that is actually just two monitors stiched together and requires you do use two HDMI 1.4 or one DisplayPort connection (which is then passed through a demultiplexer that splits the data in to two streams)? Also something that basically only works on Nvidia cards with the latest drivers because otherwise the display appears to have sync issues between the two halves?

    LOL.

    I'll wait for a real 4k monitor/TV.

    This is probably going to be what I'll be using as my dedicated living room Steam Box:



    I've already built a gaming PC with the Elite 120, so this one should be even more awesome since it's basically a replacement for the Elite 120.

    I still like the Silverstone Fortress FT03-Mini myself. Has a sleeker shape for something I would want to put in my living room. If not that, a proper HTPC chassis would do since I could install SLI GPU's and pretty much whatever other hardware I wanted without worrying about space constrictions.

    Does anyone know if you can use 1 graphics card with dual monitors, and your intergrated graphics with a third monitor simultaneously?

    Most motherboards don't support simultaneous use of the integrated and discrete graphics cards like that. Plugging in a discrete GPU disables the integrated chip.

    Most of the newer moderate to high end GPU's now support three of four outputs simultaneously though.
