Semi massive bump, but i just sorta did a mini upgrade.

Bought an:

EVGA 790i Ultra SLI Nvidia motherboard
2 gigs of 2000mhz Patriot Viper DDR3 ram
BFG Nvidia Geforce GTX280 OC pci-e 2.0 1gb video card.
Intel Core2duo Quad Core 9450.

First thing im doing with this baby is installing SA, setting everything to low, and landing the ls tower naturally.

Returned the EVGA 790i mobo and bought a XFX 790i mobo(was $20 more expensive).

Ive spent about $2000 on the upgrade, i still plan on upgrading other stuff like maybe my OS, buying 2 more sticks of the same ram, and maybe watercooling.
