I ordered all the parts about 1-2 weeks before the 8800GT was announced. Otherwise I would've. I just got around to building it.

You should have fairly good luck.
Good luck  |
I'm now running the GTS at
Core: 600, Shader: 1460, Memory: 1030. Runs everything very well, which the exception of Crysis... But, it's definitely playable if I tweak a few settings.

So far, I'm enjoying the quick boot times. Everything in windows seems to run really well. I still need to test to see if there's a speed difference in starting and running games from the Raptor vs. another 7200rpm, though... If it's not too much of a difference, then I may just end up running most my games off of one larger 7200rpm hdd.
