So yeah.....after many years it is time to quietly take my i7-970, GTX580 system out behind the barn and put it out of its misery. The old girl aged gracefully....
Have a case (much smaller this time), ram, PSU and video card on the way now. Already have the motherboard and CPU. It should be ready by the April LAN.

So I gots a box today....
And what do you know....it does contain awesome
not the happiest about it being a Zotac but it's the only one I could snag on launch day....EVGA came in stock briefly on Monday and I got lucky enough to nab one...so this will hold me over for the week until the EVGA one comes (then this Zotac is going to a friend but not before trying some oh so sweet SLI).
Mmmmmm so pretty.....I stroked it gently for a long while......
And then for shits and giggles I decided to see what going from a 580 to a 1080ti is like.....enjoy the screenshots....
What my aging system did with the GTX 580
And the 1080ti improved it just a little bit.......
