Make sure you DVD Rom is plugged in correctly, and yes your internet scrolling will stutter until you get your GFX card drivers installed.

If your gonna spend that much on a power supply you should look elsewhere than Rosewill. The corsair 620 is an excellent PSU, or even the 520. Zipzoomfly sells them at a good price.

Sorry, didnt see you said SLI. I would go with the Corsair 620.

Not sure about that power supply, a more solid choice might be the corsair HX520. If possible you might want to step up to an E 6750 for just a bit more. Other that that i think it looks good.

Newer power supplies come with an 8 pin power connector, but if your power supply doesnt you can just use the 4 pin connector your PSU should have. If you have 8 pin connector just pull the black cap off and plug it in, or just leave it in and use your 4 pin connector.

Yes Windows vista 32 can see 4 gigs of memory, but that is total memory. Your videocard ,an 8800 GTS, also takes up 640 mb of that total system memory. So out of your 4 gigs of RAM you only see about 3.3 or so of it going to use.

I also got strange lighting effects when using my flashlight with V 1.04 with an 8800 GTS. I moved back to the version before that and all is good for me.

I chose the Q6600. With the newer revision anda good heatsink you can overclock it to 3.0 Ghz and higher with no problem.

Forget the quad core and get a E6750 or so. Use the money saved and put it towards a better graphics card and 2 gigs of memory.

SLI is a waste, you would be better off buying a newer more powerful single card before buying another 1950pro in crossfire mode.
