    Agreed.

    A buddy of mine just recently purchased the NZXT Phantom tower case and he installed six out of seven possible fans into his. When his machine is going full speed, the CPU's temperature gets as high as 26 celsius (or 79 fahrenheit).

    That's not hot at all. That's pretty cool for an air cooled machine. He must not push it very hard.

    I already ordered everything :S I think I'm straight. It's got enough memory, graphics, and "oomf" to last a while.

    He went cheap and purchased a 750W power supply despite running two graphics cards in it (I forgot which ones he purchased). However, he went with a 256GB solid state to store his games and OS and a 2TB for the rest of his data. I think the only game he's really tried out with max settings is Black Ops and something else.

    Christ, my computer is running at 44 degrees celsius and I'm just surfing the internet and listening to iTunes.

    750 is fine for 2 sli 560 ti's as long as he doesn't try to OC that and the CPU as well. But that also depends on the PSU build quality as well. Some are able to go above ratings on the box while some don't pull nearly as much safely as what they are rated for.
