    It's a nice PC, but eight grand means I will have to suck so much cock I'm now taking up donations for chapstick.

    I saw this a few days ago. The most ridiculous thing I thought was that they recommended that you don't use it unless you have a 30 inch monitor or larger. Using a huge TV doesn't tend to make the picture look good, typically it just pixelizes everything because the video cards on most computers aren't large enough to make a difference. I'd be interested to see how it worked on my 42".

    Just build that for a reasonable price; and you're never going to need 12gb of ram.

    Just like when I bought mine, upgraded to 2GB ram and they told me I'd never need 2GB of ram?

    Really, if you bought that you would have to live an extravagant lifestyle or your life centers around a computer.

    Just build it for fucks sake.
    Its not hard to build a PC, and yeah, you won't need 12gb of ram for a good few years.

    I bet if you built it you could do it for 3 grand.

    I was pondering getting a computer with 11.75TB of hard drive space.

    I decided not too...since it would have been $11,000+

    Well, the memory+all of the other shit.

    it did include something like 16 gigs of ram.

    top end graphics and sound cards

    two 30" or so monitors

    surround sound

    all the premium software packages

    and more

    You just said 11.75TB of hard drive space.

    I bet if you built it you could do it for 3 grand.
    i7 956 - $1030
    ASUS Rampage II Extreme - $400
    4870 x2 - $500 x 2 = $1000
    Intel X25-M SSD - $540
    G.Skill 2GBx3 ram kit - $170

    Subtotal - $3140

    Still need PSU, Case, 2 1TB hard drives, misc - I'd say $1k more for nicer stuff.
    Another $1k to watercool everything.

    Shit that's expensive.

    It has to run Windows 3.11 because every OS since then sucked.
