thats my blog on my latest PC Build whats you guys opinion?
hoping that my 2 4870s in crossfire will be enough for any gaming for 2 years at least oh and i can run age of conan in DX 10 it looks nice [beta server] also liking windows 7 will post my view on the OS in my Blog later on.

i had never seen that heatsink before. at first it looks like a Zalman, then i wondered if you made it yourself.

Get a second G.Skill kit for 8GB. Vista/Win7 loves RAM.

4870X2 probably would have been better for gaming, 512MB video buffer is getting a bit weak for high-res gaming with AA enabled.

But otherwise, yeah, that's a nice, solid build. Just like what I've recommended to several people around here recently.

:beer:

yea maybe gonna get a second set of ram , i already had a 4870 around from my old build so i decided to get another one instead and crossfire them, also i play on 1920x1080 i noticed that i barely get any performance hit on Age Of Conan with AA enabled i keep at
2x with everything else maxed out , now when i test dx 10 for AoC my fps drop to like 35 fps so i lower my resolution and i'm able to play it but yea if i decide to get other cards i might wait for the new cards from ATI until then everything is working fine

Well, if AoC is anything like WoW in requirements, you're going to be better off with extra RAM + OC your processor before upgrading your GPUs. Most mmorpgs today seem to need lots of RAM & CPU muscle to run smooth, especially in the heavily populated cities/raids/etc.
