It is an elegant and easy, if non-standard upgrade if you have access to some competent hardware people (either in house or contract). Ours is maintained by our third party maintanence contractor. We built it ourselver for less than $70K. Makes a 780 almost tolerable, and takes up far less power, AC, and space. -Doug-
