They do have some DDR3 1600 6Gb kits out there for around 135usd.
I don't know what would be the least expensive path in Sweden.
Okey nice prices there and sure the prices in Sweden starts to drop to so I may save up some cash and go for it :)
But I probably wait and see what the upcoming 6 cores 32nm will do or just slap in another GTX 285 later on, aah these decisions hehe.
Anyway im happy as it is for now and the Corsair 1000W PSU will arrive next week so it will do for a while!

Holy crap that new Furmark Xtreme Burning Mode makes my GPU1 temp go CRAZY..... maxed out at around 105c, and its a cool day today :o
It kept running fine for about 5mins then I stopped it, but I wouldn't like leaving it at that temp for a long time..
GPU2 maxed out at 85c.

That board doesn't have the SLI chip in it, though. You can use a GTX 295, yes, but that's the extent of multi-GPU with an NVIDIA card you can achieve on that board. According to Gigabyte's (http://www.gigabyte-usa.com/Products/Motherboard/Products_Overview.aspx?ProductID=3020) site, an SLI version of the UD3R is coming. Hopefully it won't be outrageously more expensive than the non-SLI part.
Just got my Corsair 1000W PSU and man what a huge piece of metal, heavy stuff :D
Tested a little and now everything is smoth as silk so once again thanks guys for your suggestion really appritiated :)
i tested my GTX280 Gainward at 780 MHz core 1665 shaders furmark at 1920x1200 32xmsaa
fore 10 min 100% fan max temp 76C :D
Nice temps there and it should when you force it to 100% and its sounds like a Jet but thats okey i guess :D
Wow just ran this on my system (spec below), think I have serious air flow issues.
With the side of the case on I've gone up to 90c in about 5 min's.
with it off I'm running at 76c.
I'm really surprised how bad the air flow is, as it's a full tower with a very clean install. Going to have to look at getting a front fan installed.
edit...
Idle temps have also dropped with the side off from 55c to 41c, now that's a big difference..
I have an 8800 GTX SLI setup, the Top card reached 94c and the bottom topped out at about 85c. Gaming the highest was 82c/78c. They used to run at the same temps now the top card runs hotter.

Well added a 120 fan to the base, pulling air from the front with no difference in temps :(
not sure why the air flow is so bad. I've got
1x 120mm fan in base
1x 120mm fan to rear
and 2 x 120mm fans to top
yet even if I just open the side by about 5deg(hinged to bottom) the temps drop by about 15c.
edit, couple of pics added...

When Artic Cooling comes out with the Accelero XTREME GTX 280 it should cool the GTX 280 and GTX 285 real good.It is a little high but it seem to be a gret cooler.
I have the Cooler Master HAF 932 and it keeps everthing cool ,but I took out the 230mm fan which just puts out 110CFM and replaced it with four Scythe SY1225SL12M 120mm for around 300CFM and it is quiet but cools my video cards a lot better then the one 230mm did.

Got my GTX 285 the other day and get 96C under Max stress test in Furmark and wondering am I gonna fry my card as it seems way to much ?
I know it stresses it the most out there and when I game it's at 86C the most what I have seen and that wont be a problem I hope :)
I'm not too sure what card you have, but I know eVGA designs their cards to run hotter than the other manufacturers. When I called them regarding the 8800GTX in my old system, which idled at about 85C, they said that as their cards are custom designed for performance and as such they run hotter than the reference design. I had initially thought the high temps might have been causing the artifacting and lockups I was experiencing, but they say their cards are designed to run optimally at temps of up to 130C. Seemed quite hot to me, but they designed the card and should know more than I do though.

You may need to turn down your clocks.I just ran the Fur benchmark at 1920x1200 and FSAA set at 8x and the highest my GTX 280 goes to is 61c and I have them overclocked to 690/1512/2500
