Hey guys, am noob here and to mods. Here's the story..

i'm using a decent system and want some recommendations on upgrades and tweeking.
here it is...

ASUS P5n32-e Sli Premium, Intel Q6600, 4GB Corsair XMS2 PC-6400, 2x nVidia GeForce Fatal1ty,
Creative X-FI Fatal1ty, 400GB Samsung boot with 750gb seagate, 550w psu all stuck in a silver soprano thermaltake case.

want to upgrade the graphics but have a problem with space. had to take out one of the graphics cards because i added the X-FI and the graphics card heat sink was way too big and in the way.

what to do?

next i have been looking into cooling and as i don't intend modding the arse of my system i've ordered some air cooling accessories.

waiting on a thermalright ifx-14 for the cpu, also 3 scythe sff21e's.
been looking at akasa ram sinks but dunno yet.

can you peeps give me some upgrade,cooling and tweek suggestions :confused:

What graphics cards are the Fatal1tys?
Is the Q6600 a G0?

I would run the memory at stock frequencies and see how low you can get the timings. Aim for CAS 3-4 and 1T
