If one can take on a smaller HD, get SCSI Ultra 320 paired up in RAID ;)

506370 2006-12-13 05:10:00 Hmmm, on-board audio?, SAS RAID?, only 1 optical drive?.....otherwise very nice, huge case!, you could upgrade forever with that case!
Really when you think about it, for that sort of money, you need server class I/O.

506373 2006-12-13 07:46:00 You may as well tip your money down the drain. How much extra would you get for the thousands of dollars more this will cost you? The law of diminishing returns is very strong when it comes to computer performance. TGoddard (7263)

yea, ive seen 8800 gtx;s going for 300$ and under on ebay. Way i figure it, If u manage to get good deals on ebay for ALL the components it has. You can probly build it for under 5k. But, besides price, whats bad about it?
