WTF??

i5-760 = R1850
Mobo = R1500 easy
4gb RAM = R1000 easy
PSU = R500 easy, no need for i7 ready nonsense
HDD = 2x1.5TB for R1300
GPU = CF HD6870 (R4400, almost 50% more FPS) or single HD5870 (R2500, similar FPS), both get more FPS than the GTX470 and cost less

Savings = between R2000 - R4500

You deffinately still making some good money on this one or you are getting the parts from Incredible corruption

@ Archer : You can get cheaper ram and psu but if you gonna spend +10K why skimp.

@ MVGL : Yes that price is full mark up + VAT.

I did not know that 4GB RAM that runs at 1600mhz, 1.5V, CL7 is skimping?? I must be confused then eh?
And Corsair PSUs are also "skimpy" products, after all they have single rail 12V lines, 3 years warranty, run cool and can actually produce 110% of rated power. All for R600...

These prices incl VAT + full mark up too

So to sum it up, the OP could get the same CPU cheaper, probably better RAM cheaper, a betted suited PSU cheaper, more HDD capacity cheaper, and a more powerful GPU solution cheaper than the prices you listed...

Wimhotep, could you tell us where you got those outrageously high prices from?

 

[Wimhotep]

lol ... Now i know where to come to get shot down in flames ...lol
Nice !!

Thanks

It's Dinko9's prerogative where he buys , hopefully he makes an educated choice ...

Yikes dude that pricing is horrific.

Saving coule have 2 ssd's in raid 0 . Yea pada but honestly bru usb 3 is just something that i would only need in perhaps 2 years. Sata 3 is something i would rather, run 2 of the latest 300w/300r in raid 0 with 3 of them. 3 60gb raided 0

I could make serious use of it but the average person won't need it for many years to come.

educated is not spending 4k on expensive incredible connection pricing.
