Sin thank you for an awesome review! I have a question.
I am somewhat of a novice, I am currently using a QX9770 on an EVGA 790i and thinking of an upgrade. I would like to do my first SSD and W/C system for my personal use. Even looking at the EVGA GTX580 hydrocopper2 in a SLI pair. From what I've read it sounds like the 2600K screams but the chipset is a hiderance for my SLI asperations as it is a bottle neck. I can not bear the thought of spending money on a bottle neck. To be happy with my viable OC gaming, 3D rendering and video editing system, do I need to purchase the X58 chipset and the i7-980X? Any recomendations from anyone would be appreciated and thank you guys. As I am close to a build soon I will appologise for all my stupid novice questions now! OH I reread and realized I didn't type my thoughts out very well, what I mean is X58 can run two PCIe2 @ X16 while the P67 can not? I thought it could only run two PCIe2 @ X8? I guess what I mean is I thought the PCI-E SLI at X16 on the X58 chipset board would own all over the P67 @ X8 SLI.
Thank you all again, I love this forum!
