I remember I bought a 9800gt at best buy so I could get the newly implemented shadows to work in WoW. Totally worth it. used that and a Amd Phenom triple core 8450 all the way up until 2014.
I like how the blue LEDs make the orange in the heatsink look like it's bright hot, just screams the aesthetics of the time, and it was just when import tuner cars were a thing as well lol
My final sli was a gtx460 before I stopped doing it. Cheaper and faster than a 480. But it got out performed by a single 650 ti, so it was time to stop buying 2 cards ever couple of gens and just buy a higher sku gpu
So old school hardwares , reminds me of my Dreaming-PC (Never came true) back then. SLI was a dream for 2000s gamer. Nice vid. btw , i was owned this Zalman cpu cooler but in Nvidia edition. So nostalgia. And F.E.A.R is still a very fun FPS is 2022.
nice vid, good work. funy i have the near same system in front of me, striker ii formula, q9450, zalman fan and 2 ocz ram....and ive been looking for maybe a couple 8800gt
Forgot to add.... I did not see any thermal paste applied... was that paste already on the Zalman? Loved your choice of case, as well as the Plextor/ Creative external look. And with that, I think it is time for me to grab a whisky.

imagine back in the day buying 2 graphics cards to get an extra 10fps average
Yup. But some did😅

Love the heatsinks on the memory kits - so unnecessary but so badass
Love seeing these "retro" builds, would have been my dream PC when i was younger lol

leaving this here as a time capsule for the next 10 years
What a beautiful beast! Goals!
I don’t know how I got here, but I’m glad I did. Beautiful intro and retro build!
I’ve been loving your videos lately; your style and production quality is great! I can’t wait to see what you do next.
Quality content dude, TH-cam has been doing a fine job of recommending me smaller computer channels. Keep it up
Okay it's gonna be a good weard video of parts in unusual places
Nice man. Old School baby
First time I've seen someone build an 8800 GTX SLI setup. Would have been crazy overkill for the time.
I like them zalman coolers I had one and it did the job when I was running my q9550 at 4ghz 🙂
Excellent vid
For me, it is strangest to see no change in lowest fps -single/sli setup.

It have the curves of a greek god!
My best, perfect retro case is Zalman Z3 Plus -white.
i still have my rig with sli evga 9800 gtx+ with a q9650
well, that's a first keeping a graphic's card in the fridge

The paste was evenly applied on the cpu, but difficult to see in the video :)
Nicee👍🏿💪🏻
Kul video! stå på videre, moro å se!😃 Har alltid hatt lyst på de XFX 8800 GTX i SLi fra de kom, men var helt sykt dyre den gangen 😅
Takker! Mer kommer!😁 Og de var svinedyre ja. Jeg hadde ikke råd🥲
So Great gaming PC
ps:i like G80 GPU
🔥
Ahhh Black Label.... good choice!
Cool
2.5 inch SSD will help as well
windows xp was awful with sli
After reading some articles and testing for myself, i think its safe to say SLI is sub optimal as a whole (at least for the money).
@@paulp9270 Sli is good in game?
Cool
