well a couple things, number one, I don't think you could get an $80k computer for personal use if you tried, regardless of whether you can afford it or not, I just don't think the components are out there, I'm guessing the $10k range is about as much as you can spend and that's purposely just trying to spend money even at that level. Secondly, instead of a monitor, have you looked into projectors? Or what the heck, get both!

Dont get that display, the res is so low it would put your 80K computer to waste.

this guy seems much nicer than that guy that was boasting and having a go at people just because they gave an honest opinion of his rig. the threads elmarcorulz pointed you towards are a very good use of the budget if you wanna go spending like that. you will be very hard pushed to use that much money on a home system so whatever's left over you can just play with... or buy loads of games lol

Your probably right, its just that when he said he has extremely nice cars, and wants to spend 80 grand on a computer, it made me think twice
