I think I may have found one of the best deals for a gaming pc ever. Its a small ebay power seller company called venom electronics with 99.8% positive feedback. It is water cooled with an overclocked pentium q6600 processor to 12ghz (4 cores running at 3ghz each) , 4gb mem, thermaltake case, 3 x SLI 9800 gtx 512mb nvidia graphics cards (yes, 3 of them) and everything else, including a 1 year collect and return warranty. All for £1,360! ($2,700) They told me that it runs cooler than a non overclocked system would with regular air cooling. In the U.S.A everything is generally cheaper than in the UK. For the best dell XPS gaming system (which is no where near as powerful) it costs about £3000 over here ($6000) . The cheapest I found the 9800 gtx for in the uk is £270, that is $540. multiply that by 3 and add the rest and you will always spend at least £2000 ($4000) building it yourself and that wont include a 1 year support warranty either. Considering this, are there better deals out there?
