What Does Your Rig Cost

It is beyond ridiculous - just one of those, this can actually be built systems.

No one in their right mind would build that

BF3 on 2560x1600 (like my 30" Dell)/2560x1440 is simply amazing! Unfortunately my 2x GTX460 can't handle it on ultra at that resolution :(
Full-HD is for people who don't know better :p
 
Ok, here's mine.... :erm:
Bare in mind I got it at the beginning of 2010.

CM HAF 932 AMD Edition
i7 920
Cogage True Spirit
6gb Mushkin triple channel @1600
MSI X58 Pro - E
2tb of storage broken into 3 drives
Club 3D 5870
Liteon 6x Bluray drive
Corsair TX750

Subtotal: R15 949

Creative 5.1 - R800
TT Meka G-Unit (not the rappers) - R1 300
Cyborg R.A.T Contagion - R1100 <-- REALLY want to replace this. Major laser tracking issues.
46" Samsung D7000 - R15 500 <-- Bought for 3D gaming and movies.

Total: R34 649

Take the screen out and it would've been a reasonable amount....

Is there any difference with using a Xeon CPU for a non-server based computer? Any downfall?

Yip ... link is in the thread further back.

I don't know why one of the bigger suppliers does not import these things, even if they put a 50% markup, still cheaper than anything locally...

The problem probably lies with RMA issues and after sales service with products like those.
 
true, but surely that can be worked around ... If a supplier can get sole agency for the product from the manufacturer, there must be some sort of backup support...

Too much admin just for one product....... Based on the efforts it will take to make this product available locally it just wont be feesable. Add in administrative costs, taxes etc.... It will be quite ridiculously priced but on the other hand the only company I've seen that has the balls to bring speciality tech products locally is evetech maybe we should throw this their way.......
