Origin PC Announces The Big O Gaming PC, Fuses PC Might with Xbox 360 Capability
ORIGIN PC is proud to unveil The Big O, their latest creation designed for dominance and destined to make high performance computing enthusiasts and gamers to drool uncontrollably. The Big O fuses the capabilities of the fastest computing hardware on the market, ORIGIN's expert overclocking, and a built in Xbox 360 to create the ultimate gaming weapon.
The Big O is featured in CPU Magazine's annual Dream Machine review roundup, an epic competition between system builders. "If you want the ultimate PC, the Big O is it" said CPU Magazine. "By integrating an Xbox 360, the Big O offers everything and the kitchen sink."Absolute Power - With Intel's Xeon X5680 processors there is nothing you can throw at The Big O that will slow it down. Each X5680 features six-cores, twelve threads, supports ECC memory-and that's before we add a second CPU and overclock it to a lighting fast 4.3GHz. Add in up to 24GBs of Corsair GT 2000MHz memory and then dare any computer task to slow down your Big O.
Quad Damage - A strong core with excellent liquid cooling is the key to lasting performance and EVGA's GeForce GTX 480 FTW graphics cards delivers the best graphical power money can buy. This power is multiplied in a SLI multi-GPU configuration creating the most immersive visuals imaginable in gaming and beyond. The Big O provides the unmatched graphics performance that will shatter any benchmark thrown at it.
The X-Factor - To empower gamers with the most comprehensive gaming platform on the planet, ORIGIN integrates a liquid-cooled Xbox 360 slim directly into each Big O. Every Big O system is strategically modified so the Xbox ports are easily accessible with liquid cooled processors for extreme performance. You can even game on the Xbox 360 while your computer is busy dominating whatever other task it is assigned.
Liquid Cooled to Perfection - ORIGIN keeps your Big O cool with its state of the art liquid cooling system that maximizes performance from the CPU, motherboard, graphics card and even the integrated Xbox 360 slim. The ORIGIN custom liquid cooling system aggressively dissipates heat and eliminates fan noise ensuring your system remains cool and whisper quiet.
"The Big O will satisfy the demands of even the most power hungry gamer, but when you create the ultimate personal computer system it has to be designed to go above and beyond gaming" said Kevin Wasielewski, CEO and Co-Founder of ORIGIN. "From the hottest games on the market to digital video editing and 3D rendering you will have the power to perform at every level. To have the best you have to build using the latest in computer technology that guarantees unmatched performance and that is exactly what you get with the Big O."
"Wow, we can honestly say we've never seen a system like the Big O before," said Ujesh Desai, general manager of the GeForce GPU business at NVIDIA. "The components selected by ORIGIN, including up to quad GeForce GTX 480 GPUs will definitely have gamers salivating for the win."
The Big O features a 1 year free shipping and free part replacement warranty backed with the best in class integration, quality testing and support. ORIGIN offers a free life-time phone and online service guarantee and each customer has a dedicated support team and free life-time labor for upgrade needs. Pricing for The Big O starts from $7,669 and can be configured one on one with an ORIGIN specialist through this page.

and as for cant build a pc like this even if you tried Mr 3volvedcombat, you could build something a lot better with half that budget :slap: :shadedshu
17k on warranty, not surprised you need it cooling 2 xeon's and 4 480's in one loop, I bet one of those cards pops every month :roll:
It could make sense to build it yourself.
I was bored, Totaled everything, and a comparable 400+ dollar case.
Alone it came to 11,000grand without the water cooling parts. fans/rads/bits/pumps/blocks.
The labor to sleeve the actually wires of the 2 power supply's. or build the WC loop with all those radiators.
Id say built yourself, if purchased retail, should add up to 12,000ish.
They have to pay the guy, Overclocking the system, Checking its performance, Sleeving the actually cables to the power supply's, Putting it in a wooden box crate without breaking it, add in the warrenty fee for 3 years, and unlimited support, and just commision on the side.
I think the 16-17k is worth it still guys.
I think its got a nuff cooling to handle it, not overclocking the cards to the max here, or at all in the first place, they are stock clocked though :O
haha... not funny. lol
yea.. this thing has some serious hardware and it does look real nice but i dont get, if you are going to sell an OCed machine, why they dont go for bigger OC?
ESPECIALLY with water on the 5680s.
i can get the pair of x5650s i have running faster than 4.3ghz on air 100% stable, and i did... for a week crunching 24/7, so whats the deal with 4.3ghz out of chips that cost nearly 2x as much?
my 5680s have been in the demo machines for 2 months now running 4.5ghz on AIR without any hitch. they been put through a barrage of benches and tons of data has been processed through those cpus without any issue of heat or instability.
when i look at this all i see is eyecandy. like someone said already, they will sell 1-2 max and thats it. but you have to understand one thing about this kind of thing.....
in order to get your name out there you do shit like this. you build a crazy machine and show it off to everyone. why? because then everyone has something to know you by.
but yes.... $17k? whew. i have $24,381 invested in 5 fully built SR2 machines that would likely kill this thing with exception of the xbox360 and looks of course.
good job orginpc. you made a sick ass machine. now show us something that will sell and keep your pockets lined with greenbacks.
PS... with 4 gtx480s you can get about 8-10% performance increase by using 24gb or more ram, even at slower speeds.
Wernt you running 1.45volts for your 4.5Ghz overclock?
Your ES 3.45Ghz chips havnt been benched higher then 4.5Ghz, so what are you trying to say?
Selling a over-clocked machine, in the first place, is absolutely risky man, you know that. Yes you can clock it to 4.5Ghz but you had high voltage from what i saw:P
You cant expect all these xeon 5680's to be overclocking as great as some others, 4.3Ghz in the first place is pushing it, anybody that buys this system, or potentually buys this computer probably wont have any overclocking experience at all. So if the overclock, does some how fail, o shit basically :ohwell:
So they keep it at 4.3Ghz, so most the chips they order, can achieve that clock with perfect stability, and not a great chance of it crapping out over degradation, or 1.4+volts.
I want to use this rig for 5 years or a little less if i was paying 17k for it.
Just saying.
I dont think the price of the parts is actually $17,000 a lot less.
Lots of people dont even get that in wages!
Some nice hardware in it though.
that is one utter beast of a machine, with a w/c 360 too, jeesus..
they won't sell that many but grats on the design.
They forgot to include that it comes with a ridiculous electricity bill. lol
Btw, what the heck is "Windows 7 Home Ultimate..."???
I love it when someone tries to kick it up a notch too much and then fails massively...
Unless you use money like paper, then I'll swear this thing is worthless :D
I'd go with a i7 975 and a Dual GTX 460 plus 12Gb Ram, that's clearly enough for now and maybe a few years later
