Let's see, I just got about, 560 euros extra, + if I sell my current case (Thermaltake Soprano) + Motherboard (Gigabyte P35-DS4) and PSU (EnerMax Liberty 620W).. Erm, I guess I can get 300/350 euro's for those last three? (correct me if that's too high/low).. So yea, another GTX is about 280 euro's at it's cheapest, then a SLi motherboard and a strong PSU so I can Tri-SLi later on if I want to. Maybe I can do that even instantly, but does a 1000W PSU make your electricity bill go up a lot? Even when it's not fully used? Or can I do Tri-Sli with 850W or something too.. Guess it's just that I just woke up I can't figure out anything on my own this morning -.-

-edit-
Just found out I can get an 8800GTX cheapest for 249 euro's, XFX that is, now I have a Club 3D, shouldn't matter right? Anyway see above questions too please
Brand doesn't matter.
Something like 750w with 4 pci-e power connectors is enough for SLi. For Tri-SLi you need a PSU with 6 pci-e power conenctors (these won't come cheap believe me).
The price of the hw you are selling: If you can sell it at that price, it is amazing deal. new ds4 costs like 130€ + psu 100€ + case... gl but I think you need to cut price a bit.
1000w does not use that huge amount of power all the time. Only the amount your pc needs. So no worries here unless you are running crysis bench 24/7

Alright, but I need 6 pci-e power connectors.. So those only come in 1000W+ variants right? Or will a 850W cut it too? I guess not..
And about the case, is a SilverStone TJ05 a good one? It has 2x 120mm fans, but I know it's actually a watercooling case. I'm not sure if I wanna go on watercooling though as that will cost a lot more again and I don't know a lot about it. I guess I'll just start a new thread soon..
Thanks for the help so far panzer.
