exactly.

now thats the point, based on current hardware, and realistic upgrade options, unless you were to srell of the 570's and replace with 6*0's

then I think the only real options are;

a proper multi monitor setup

Raid 0 SSD (fairly inexpensive upgrade, anyone know how well built in Raid Controller for his mobo is?)

You dont seem liek the person to try it, but a custom WC setup for the GPU's would obviously be very boss.

I would also reccomend donate the 570 to me

Buut yah, really the best upgrades u can do.

Maybe a Monitor arm =)

otherwise new mobo and i7 like all the jerks say all day lol

Raid 0 SSD (fairly inexpensive upgrade, anyone know how well built in Raid Controller for his mobo is?)
You dont seem liek the person to try it, but a custom WC setup for the GPU's would obviously be very boss.
I would also reccomend donate the 570 to me

Buut yah, really the best upgrades u can do.
Maybe a Monitor arm =)
otherwise new mobo and i7 like all the jerks say all day lol

I was considering a full water loop. But my570's r not reference so I doubt I would be able to put water through them.

There the Vega gtx 570 hd superclocked.
