look at the fire 580, the higher the base price the higher the markup is the general idea, meaning the same setup on both (they have the same options) will cost more on the mage because it has a higher mark-up than the fire does.

ok, i was looking at the quad core section, but it looks like those 2 cost the same with the same parts, but with all the stuff we were posting and all i was still able to do the 925, a corsair 750w and a 6950 for around 880

i put all that in and i cant get it lower than 950, keeping a quad core processor and 4gb of 1600 ram.

oops, i wasn't using the msi board, but with it, the corsair 750w and the 925 and the 6950 on the fire 500 i got it at 916, would check on getting like the 955 or something as the next upgrade, but wouldn't for more than 20. and also i used the nzxt gamma gaming case i think, it's one of the cheapest and it looks nice.
