Yes it is, but i would change the mobo to a newer one as it is a bit old nforce on it. Also i wouldnt run mediacenter, get vista instead as you got the comp to handle it. and make it the 64bit version.

And i hope ur getting two gts cards and not one gts and one gt :P

Was going to say the same, you need two identical cards to perform SLi, at least, last time I was buying SLi cards that was the case

You gents are correct... in fact the company called me to say the same exact thing and I got it corrected. Also upgraded to a 700 watt power supply.

Thanks and I am looking forward to NOT having to minimize all graphics settings to play EU!
