I have a Lian Li Lancool case (this one). It has pretty much the same features as the K9. The clamps on the PCI slots are fantastic and hold the cards in sturdy without the need for any screws. Lian Li make some really good tooless designs and don't cheap out on their lower end cases.

Nvidia's 680 won't be out till at least Q2 2012 and probably even later. I'd take a guess and say around August. There's also rumors AMD will release the 8xxx series before the end of year but take that with a grain of salt...

You could get a 7970 shipped from Amazon for under $600. Or for a more well-known brand, around $50 more. Though, of course, warranty would be annoying, unless the brand has some kind of worldwide warranty.

So guys, I'm thinking of giving up Eyefinity and going pure single screen again for now, as I'd like to go 120hz primarily for my Quake gaming and general smoothness/insane IQ. My plan in the future is to potentially get three of them and go back into Eyefinity mode, but for now I'd be happy to go single 120hz and when I have proper income/moniez, go triple.
The Samsung S27A950 is the one I aim for. I'm indifferent to it being 1080p max, as future proof = Eyefinity which is more than enough resolution.
My question though is: where can I go about selling my Monitors? They're all Dell P2210s, two are about 2 years old and the other about 6-7 months, all in excellent condition. Their RRP is like $369 so I'm looking for $140-$160 for each. I only intend to sell two though as I'd like to keep one as backup/a smaller extended monitor.
Thoughts/suggestions?

OCAU!
The only place to sell PC hardware stuff.

Definitely OCAU but you need to be a member of their forum for at least 3 months to sell stuff on there. It should be easy to arrange pick up too.

^ Is your hard drive being thrashed? I find my work computer takes ages to connect because the HDD is constantly getting hammered by buggered if I know what.
