Got the system up and running, finally, its what I am using right now in the forum. Currently have an ATA drive for the sata drive have not been acquired yet. Don't know which to buy. Everything is stock so far, have not tried the SLI yet, I just wanted to see if the system will run before doing some complicated stuff on the board. It seems that everything is in order so will try SLI next and on to overclocking. Will do some benching stock and see how it compares to SLI and overclocked.
