great price, great computer.

if anyone from the us says thats expensive, look at how the economy works, that like $500 for you

fakes? of what? people dont make fake CPUs lol they use microtechnology. Just they probably use the cheapest quad core mobo, the cheapest and slowest RAM, the cheapest PSU that can handle it, the cheapest GFX, the cheapest everything lol.

Post by: H-Sauce on August 31, 2008, 02:58:51 AM: i reckon they buy it wholesale. im thinking of getting that, ocing it and putting a BFG GeForce GTX 280 OCX, which is capable of running crysis on high running at 1920x1200 with 4x AA with a average fps of 33. or should i go for dual core and better quality parts.
