Ultimate gaming PC my ass...

[OmegaZero_Alpha]

If anybody watched G-whore(G4TV+M$) the other day and saw their ULTIMATE PC section and tried to pass off this 2000$ POS as 4500$. And not that the ULTIMATE gaming PC could be built for 4500$ anyway. I was so pissed, I designed A REAL ultimate pc:

Mobo : EVGA 132-CK-NF78-A1 LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 780i SLI ATX

Processor : Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9650

Video Card : Quadro FX4600 768MB 384-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 (x2)

Network Card : Bigfoot Networks Killer NIC M1 10/ 100/ 1000Mbps PCI Network Adapter with a 400 MHz Network Processing Unit (NPU)

Sound card : Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Elite Pro 7.1 Channels 24-bit 192KHz PCI Interface Sound Card

Case : Thermaltake SwordM VD500LBNA

Hard drive 1: Fujitsu MAX3073RC 73GB 15,000 RPM 16MB Cache Serial Attached SCSI (SAS)

other HDDs: HITACHI Ultrastar A7K1000 HUA721010KLA330 (0A35772) 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive (6 of them >.<)

Scsi card: 3ware 9690SA-4I4E PCI-Express x8 Serial Attached SCSI (SAS)

optical-drives: throw some blu-ray drives in it...

Monitors: I figured since you were going all-out you should go all-out with the monitors and pick yourself up a trio of Area-51® m9750 fom alienware with dual-raided solid-state hard-drives, dual NVIDIA® GeForce™ 8700M GT
, Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T7600,4GB Dual Channel DDR2,etc. you should probably get a few plasma-screens in-case you lose all of your laptops, though.

Price: DON't CARE, IT IS ULTIMATE

Please, avoid killer NIC.

I figured that the only problem with them was price (as the ammount of load it takes off of the processor/VGA is minimal at best) and since this has to be ULTIMATE...

[OmegaZero_Alpha]

7 hard-drives including the Serial SCSI, and because it will be teh extremezor
