I am running a rampage 3 mb, i7 980x, 12gs ddr3 corsair x, coolmaster silentpro gold 1200 psp, Intel 80gb g3 ssd, 3x500wd hd in r5, and 2x envidia GTX 470 cards. Should I upgrade to bigger or should I stay. Would I gain anything going to, say a 590. Your gonna ask what I use it for, well I want to do 3d rendering, just have ni chose a program.:confused:

I wouldn't bother at this point. Wait till the shakedowns come from BD, SB-E, GTX6XX, and HD7XXX. You won't be able to do any 3d rendering on new equipement that you can't already do, it just might take a tiny bit more time than the higher end stuff right now.

Yeah, they do great and run smooth, just feel like they are the bottleneck in my build.
