8. Does your PC live up to you expectation ?

Yes is does , I'm not disappointed in anyway and it performs a lot better then I expected. The board along with the Power Supply two things I wouldn't trade for anything out there , I'm quite satisfied despite it's cost , well worth it. My Monitor/TV is even better , it's excellent in fact..

10. What sucks and should not have been bought?

I'm always double minded and think I've made plenty mistakes with everything I've purchased to date but nothing sucks , no way
But I wish I could find Corsair's GT2000 and the SSD drives I've been looking for , I've also been trying to get my hands on Sanyo Fans , Blue Ray Drive and a Freezeone TEC Cooler , all of which I cant find here..
So the items I'm using instead were always secondary on my list , regardless non of my secondary options suck.

11. Did you modify anything ? cases/video cards/other? Did you do it yourself? Walk us through it.

I painted the case (Was a nightmare because I painted in doors and my brain didn't feel right for about a week but the paint job turned out better then expected , took me many hours) , I also removed a few parts from the front to remove the typical 830 look and I had to cut the board's tray a little to make room for the 3rd card since the the PCI-E Slots on the REII are lower compared to other boards like the eVGA X58., so basically my card wouldn't fit because of that.

I also had to cut the back side of the case to allow the card to exhaust all it's hot air (Used a Cutter and file)

12. Your 3DMark06 / 3DMark Vantage score (P+GPU)

I've got plenty of tweaks and working to do , my 3dmark Vantage Score sits @ P33889 , GPU 30204.

13. Do you have any Future updates planned ?

I'll be adding 6 more gigs about next week or so, then a month after , I'll try getting my hands on Corsair's GT2000 because that's what I really want.

I also want to get my hands on SSD's , I might get the latest ones by OCZ if those are available.
