November 2, 201114 yr How much? Kenneth Weir My Saitek yoke mod i7 2600k @ 4.7 8GB Gskill CAS7 2x GTX580 SLI Surround + GT520 Accessory Win7x64
November 3, 201114 yr ripoff. It'd be cheaper to build an i5 2500k system which would substantially outperform that. Kenneth Weir My Saitek yoke mod i7 2600k @ 4.7 8GB Gskill CAS7 2x GTX580 SLI Surround + GT520 Accessory Win7x64
November 3, 201114 yr I can send you my old i7 960 system with very, very similar hardware for about 2/3 the price or less of that. That really just isn't a good deal at all Richard. Dell really makes a killing selling hardware like that at that price. ___________________________________________________________________________________ Zachary Waddell -- Caravan Driver -- Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/zwaddell Avsim ToS Avsim Screenshot Rules
