Well I kinda stopped lusting after the things that only rockstars and celebrity can afford so as nice as that is, all I hadda say is, well that's nice and i'll buy it in about 2 yrs when that same system cost less than 2000USD :p. It is sweet though.

its ok

i wouldnt spend 7k us on a machine and then not get a 965 board for the conroe
also ofcourse, waste of time crossfire config.

7500 US? you can build an SLI rig for like 5000.... and overclock it yuself .  Fast but as usual , building it yourself is a better deal .

[W1nTry]

True as that may be Trini, ppl who buy these uber gaming rig are not techies who trying to save money. It's ppl who want a uber gaming rig that looks GREAT, runs FAST and has a warranty should something crack snapple POP. Plus the differentiator FNW uses is the custom paint jobs which are car polished finish. The paint jobs alone run you 600+ usd. So for the rest of us, squeezing every penny this is ubsurd, but to the masses, its a pinnacle of gaming prowess. And what you talking bout 5000? yuh could build for MUCH less than that. To match that however, i'd guess 4G tops.

And all that is a waste of time if you have an @ssified monitor of course.

truly amazing 3dmark score. WOW.

not worth the money as everyone already said but still..WOW

The custom cases are eye catching jobs. Alienware and Falcon keep a monopoly on them. I've scoured the internet looking for a WarHammer 40,000 custom case but could never find it for sale.

Bastards!
