Windows 8 is a bit more efficient than Win7, I would go that route if I am planning for the ultimate rig.

Five and a half thousand dollars for a PC in a 100 dollar ugly-ass case. Don't they have any decency?

LOL 2 690's for single monitor gaming... 64GB of ram for gaming... Ooof.

You can make a "beast" with 16GB (or 8) of ram and a single 7970/680 (or even 7950/670). BYO!

Compiled list of all the parts from Newegg Canada, total was
4,802.88 assuming the professional grade cooling would be similar to an H100 in price at least.
So it's not as bad as some other companies considering..

64GB of ram??? we can cut 20-30% of the cost of the build if we go with 8GB or 16GB

"Indeed, game enthusiast will have hours of fun and entertainment with the The Beast"
with a pricetag of $5484. this gaming enthusiast better be made of money or face a few years of no sleep, double shift's and flipping burgers at Wendy's to pay off this 'beast'

but on a more serious note... REALLY? REALLY GAMING PC??

When most of the games available for the PC are crap console ports that can be run full out on any mid/low-range machine what makes having 2 extra cores, 48-56GB extra ram or 2xGTX 690's will make any difference at all?

I dont see a gaming machine here... I see a machine which would be a total beast for WCG or F@H. All it would need is a bigger/better case and a custom watercooling loop to keep all that hardware chilled. Add one of these babies to the TPU WCG/F@H army and we'd be taking the charts by f**king storm like sucker punching a baby...

bitches dont see it coming but when they do, they be hatin.

Agreed. Do I really want to spend $5000 with a company that doesn't employ a fluent English speaker to do English language PR?

you wont be able to build a better pc if you dont make a profit selling the parts and nobody is going to buy second hand at full or above R.R.P. you wont get a 'better' PC then this for the money

This PC here is a lot better then most of the members here at TPU there is very little room to improve unless you go with a 3960X, more SSDs, more ram (if possible) dual CPU or Quad SLI/crossfire.
