I built a BEAST PC and I need your opinion

[MSIC]

TunnelRat, i am very pleasantly astonished to see someone in your shoes speaking plainly, and it impresses me.
Loads of posts here about "what system is best" blah blah are from individual points of view who are talking about 1 or 2 systems they have used (myself included), whereas someone from your viewpoint will have a far greater reaching experience.
Thank you for that, and please don't be shy in the future.

Dude, he's from Beast, and in my opinion the best pc builders in the world: we should be polishing his sandals.

i must admit that spec seems kinda crazy, though i wonder if he could be involved in gaming programmer or CAD design studies/engineer, sisne CAD a monster of eating up pcs....

love to see the final spec which he went for and how much it cost alltogether, must say though going to love to see what it looks like, also how he going to fit it into a pc case..

look forward to benchies.. I still think that PC isn't really worth it though.. but hey its your money - who am i to judge..

make sure to bench crysis.. - try to beat 15fps in low detail...


you must have big cajones to come back after all the doubters well doubted you - me included..

I apologise if any of my posts sounded harsh..

___
looking forward to Muska apologising aswell - it should be a really good one with cherries on-top..


bring on the benches - photos of PC too, in all it's shiny goodness..


sephir12 - you need 5 posts before being able to do URL links and inserting pictures in 'IMG' tags.. - just thought you'd like to know..

hi stevie_lee, as much as i hope that i'm wrong this thread is getting more and more weird by the day, i'm not gonna apologise yet cause we are yet to see any proof and it did take sephir12 almost a week to get back + he promised benchies yesterday for today and tunnelrat who confirmed that a system like that has been ordered said that it's in the preliminary build stage so unless i'm missing smth this just doesn't seem right to me...

[shadowcreaper]

i think someones squirming.....

I personaly think max you can spend on a top notch pc is 2.5k but if your pc is your work pc and his work involves high graphics process then by all means i totaly see why he would need the power.

or he just filthy rich and wants to stick one up to the poor mortals like ourselfs who live in squaller tryign to survive the credit crunch....

Why buy a Suburu WRX STi when you can afford a Bugatti Veyron or a Pagani Zonda?

ie. if you can afford the best, why compromise... I know if I had the funds I'd have some serious kit to play with (not just my computer, I lust after the best of everything! )

WRX STi = a fabulous sports car within the realms of the mere mortal = £1000-£1500 PC
Veyron & Zonda = insane super cars that only a handful can possess = £3000+ PC

Interesting analogy.

Impreza STi, a car that is generally bought to be used everyday and can have most of it's power enjoyed and utilised on a regular basis

Veyron and Zonda, Probably not.

There's also the comapative costs to run and replacement parts which fit that analogy

I'd also like to see a Veyron or Zonda handbreak turn around a tight 180 degree dirt road. Expensively entertaining, I'd wager.

Once the system is built we'll pop some links for pictures on here for you buddy.

My stance is pretty much 'as long as you know what you are buying, getting it would make you happy even at that cost and the cost isn't beyond your mean'.

About the machine, I have no problem with Creative hardware (business policies is another story) under XP, but given the machine being built, you might get the Elite Pro. It's the only one in the X-Fi series with superior DAC (relative to sound cards).

Have you seen the backside of the Mercielago? Ahhh...

I lust after the best as well but only within my practical means credit card bills often bring you to your senses!

i'm not questioning you but the op, if you say you are working for beast and building a system like this i have no reason to doubt you - that would be a stupid thing to brag about and what are you - his mother? no one is questioning your credentials, let the guy to come with some proof to his words. btw this is geting ridiculous - just read through the whole thread, the guy promises pictures and benchmarks although he hasn't got the system yet, looks to me even more now that he's a showoff are you even sure he's the one ordering from you? here's smth from google http://forums.extremeoverclocking.com/p3142340.html he promised benchies here more than a week ago + do you even ship to greece?
