Id move the two raptor drives to the second build and then dump that GTX 580 into it.

Something like:
ASUS P8P67 EVO Motherboard
Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo Boost)
CORSAIR DOMINATOR 8GB (4 x 2GB) 240-Pin SDRAM DDR3 1600
2X In Raid 0 Western Digital VelociRaptor 10000 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s
Crucial RealSSD C300 128GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
SONY Black 12X Blu-ray
Thermaltake Toughpower 1050W Gold
+ 580 ;-)

Thats what I was considering but Im pretty new to all this. The Velcociraptors have the operating system from PC 1 and the SSD has the OS of PC 2. What would be the best way to swap them? if there anyway that I can move the OS from the SSD to the Caviars?
