That parallel video card stuff sounds nice but it might be a nightmare.
I'm a fan of keep it simple.
Before I spend 400 bucks on 2x660's@2GB..... I'd look at 1x770@4GB.
Your psu should be fine......if you want to go bigger it won't hurt.

Is my power supply going to be able to power all these parts? The power supply is 750W and the graphics cards only needs a 6pin PCI-E connector each. The power supply i have has 4. What i'm wondering is it says recommends a 450W power supply. Is that per graphics card? I don't need a 900W PSU right?
Also the ram doesn't list a wattage. Is that because it gets all the power it needs from the motherboard which takes a 24 pin + 8 pin power connector (in my case).
<div>On the motherboard it says it has 4 PCI-Express 2.0 slots. Does that mean I can put my video card (
PCI Express 3.0 x16)in any of the slots? What confuses me is this part of the motherboard specification.</div><span id="INSERTION_MARKER">pic
Lastly are there any major bottle necks? I think the processor is over kill but this computer will be for gaming and video editing.
