Just to let everyone know, thats $12,850 USD.

Really, don't spend that much on a computer. You can get a really high end system with 28" LCD for under $4,000.

yeah like Omega said you dont need that much to get a high end system.

re-think your budget and maybe we can come up with a build list.

I'm guessing if he can spare that much for a computer, he can get himself a "decent" car. Anyway, get a quad-core with sli'ed GTX's and 4gb RAM. Theres a guy on youtube with a monster of a machine you may want to look up...I think the title is "building a monster".
