SLI Rig of the Month
Full Name: Charles Garnett
Gaming Handle: Elite NemesisNSN
Location: Chesapeake, VA

The never-ending pursuit of "Digital Greatness"

Charles has been a long time NVIDIA fan, and we think he got very excited when he learned that he could add a second graphics card to his PC - everything about Charles' rig seems to be plural: 2 GPUs, 4 monitors, 8 hard drives, 2 power supplies - the list goes on...

"Elite NemesisNSN", as Charles is known online, has taken some extreme steps to create his own unique gaming environment - the PC defines the user defines the experience - it's not just a PC - it's an environment all in its own.

Charles' approach to building a PC is reflected in his own words below:

"It is a way of life. Gone are the days of simply building a machine. The machine drives me, compels me, yet is nothing without me. I am what I build and it says a lot about the direction I want the gaming environment to take. "

Congratulations Charles, Brutus stands alone!
