Another question: How smooth does the system run for heavy processing tasks that don't take advantage of the GPU? For example, can you still multitask if you're running something else that maxes out the CPU?

A lot of what you are talking about is dependent on system RAM. The highest amount of RAM that I've ever had utilized at a single time "besides stress testing" was around 5GB. So, there was 1GB left, and the system responded and ran as if there were 5GB left --> flawlessly.

I never have slowdowns. Everything is "always" instantaneous.

Is it possible that you're getting higher FPS with two cards because of DX11's GPGPU? If this game is really strenuous on the CPU that could be the case, in which your third card could be used independently for helping the CPU. Just a thought.

Starting with the 9.12 WHQL drivers, my 3rd GPU now works WONDERS in Dirt 2 :) They fixed whatever scaling problem was occurring, and I am extremely happy.

Why didn`t you buy 3 HD 5970?; you could have even better gaming experience..and you could have 6 GB VRAM

@brotherofhumanity

You can only CF a maximum of 4 GPUs. The same goes for SLI. Therefore, one can only have "2" 5970s hooked up for Quad-Fire.

Now, if you built your rig primarily for F@H, you can have as many GPUs as you can fit on your motherboard installed. They will not however be in SLI or CF, well only a maximum of 4 of x (however GPUs installed).

How is the electric bill going? tapping illegale from the neighbors?

[GrodiPutin]

why would you need more than max 60 fps in a game or in anything atleast i would be happy with 24 fps like in a movie but i suppose you do this to see how good your computer can get.

That is probably the most pimped out desktop i have ever seen, only by one video card tho lol my dad has the same specs other then that
