Hmm... Hard to tell. Deffinately a very high end system. Are you sure the PSU is good enough, though? (Even though it is a real 700 watt PSU). Whenever I buy a system, I always look at the PSU almost immediately. It gives me a good idea of what the quality of the system is, as most shops/big box stores often cut corners on the PSU. However, it seems that NOX is as rather good, if not very good PSU manufacturer, so I'd assume this system is deffinately top of the line. (even by noticing the number of HDDs, and ram memory, and video cards, even.).
I'll give a ballpark price of maybe... > $2000? |

well nox is not the best i guess but itīs pretty decent, and the urano series gives very good value for money, iīve ran some tests and it seems to cope well, as you said, itīs a real 700w psu, not a 700 max power psu.
just to give an incetive to the price, look up the graphics cards, just by themselves, itīs quite a bit of dosh, not to mention the actual case itself isnīt cheap either, in any case, thanks for your price tag bacon : ) |

Id say your looking at about 2 grand
2x500gb harddrives = 1tb 1tb harddrive would make sense and do you really need 8gb of ram and 4 cd drives?? Sounds like a waste of money. This post has been edited by hunter on March 25, 2008 12:43 am -------------------- |

2 grand in what currency mate?
And now.. see the 1tb hdds are only 16mb caché + if it brakes your screwed these 500gb are 32mb caché, so a lot faster + if one brakes you always have the other one : ) Well the ram and drives are pretty cheap these days so it wouldnt really make much of a difference, plus the kind of person that would buy this rig might not want it just for gaming, but for 3d design and stuff, in which case you would use the ram.

yes the idea is to build a few to sell in the shop, both physical and online shops, since i have a specs of all kinds, but i wanted to make a stupidly powerfull one to have as an option since iīve made a couple on order and it seems to be in demand here.
the idea would be to make this one, and an intel version (P5B top of the range model mb and Q6600). And 2000 quid, ok good guess mate. The idea of this is to make sure itīs worthied and that iīm making a good deal. |

I would say slightly more than Ģ2000, don't know why, but for all that system it just seems worth more, say, Ģ2300?
I could just be talking rubbish again, mind Out of interest how much did the parts cost you? -------------------- |

Ok see 2000-2500 is the average price iīve seen this kind of spec at and the average price people have told me they would spect to sell... i dunno if itīs due to currency exchange or what not but here are the selling prices:
1800 Euros 1340 Quid 2800 Dollars So yes me thinks iīm offering a pretty decent deal. This post has been edited by Luciel on March 25, 2008 04:18 pm |

yeah i chose that tower because of the big fans, means more cooling but less rpm therefor itīs practically noiseless.
And mallic... thatīs an extra you can choose on the pulldown menu on the site : ) |
