Not sure what I would do with a computer like that. I can think of a better way to spend $6k+.

Jordan.
College tuition or a quality used car.

Yeah, really. I'd like them to put some sort of counter on that page to show how many people are actually buying this. It seems like such an utter waste of money. :|

what will it be next?

That's pretty cool and all, but it is a waste of money. I mean.. I sort of browsed through the entire page, not just the little Flash Animation to show it's awesome-ness, and they really didn't talk too much about it's RAM Memory, GigaHurts, ROM Memory and all those things you should be looking for in a computer.

Just to have fancy lights on your CPU is not worth $6000, because that is essentially what they're selling. That, and the fact that it stays cool because of it's extremely complicated way of cooling the CPU.

They've put in way too much time thinking about stuff that isn't as important as the important stuff in a computer.

Do yourself a favor and save 6K for something more useful. You can get yourself 3 24" iMacs (the new one) for 6K.

Nah. I'm a gamer i don't want a Mac. And i googled the 720 H2C and got a couple of websites. They do fully describe every thing. 4 gigs of RAM. over clocked CPU 3.5 Ghz i think. Still not really worth 6k though.

As for the buy and build it your self. A lot of stuff was factory over clocked stuff. I can''t remember what they said -.-

Keep your money.

Also, it's a 1KW PSU. Imagine your power bills.

The computer can be purchased for much cheaper if you buy the parts yourself and put it together. I just did something similar.
Very true. The computer I'm using at the moment is has less RAM and storage space, but the rest of it's pretty much the same, and yet it was half of the cost. If I recall correctly, that also included the monitor. ;D Of course, the computer's still too expensive for my tastes (I use my computer for the internet and word processing, my $500 computer works for that), but it shows how overpriced that thing is. @[email protected]

Vista is just not worth it ATM and the processor is to expensive ($1000 alone)

And lol yea the power bill would be sky high.

Still I'd keep it if i won it free of charge.

That's actually not a bad price on the components, if they're still covered under warranty despite being overclocked to kingdom come. (3.7 GHz? That'd be so hot that you could cancel your heating in the summer). I dunno. I still lean towards Dell for PCs, even though everyone seems to hate them. :[ If you wanted a tweaked-out system without all of the work and concern, factory overclocking is pretty cool, as it should be tested to tolerate it. Its just not as much fun~ ♥

The H2C hybrid solution combines a liquid radiator, a thermoelectric cooling module and control circuitry, optimizing CPU cooling with minimal power consumption. The result is a processor that stays cool when it's overclocked
And that's awesome. XD;

Um... Overclocking voids the warranty in a lot of situations. Are Dell asking you to void the one year warranty?

I think that we should be donating money to the poor kids in Africa etc., instead of donating money for someone to get a new compy~ ^^ That's just me, though.

My stars, I would never spend that much money on something like that >_< I'd say it's just a big waste of money.

IDK about the warranty stuff. But the computer was made to over clock just about everything.

I say give your money to an American and leave Africa to actually do something its self. Now 6K for a PC is a lot. Max. speanding should be around 2K
