Or the one they made in 2009, or 2010, or today.

Pics are from 2008.

4GB PC is now laughable.

They are the best on the market, you can tell by the price :rofl:


There are a lot of computers for less money that are better for graphics...if all you want to do is game then they are ok but for actual number crunching graphics computations there are far better.

And I'm not too sure, but using some parts from an semi-old PC and just upgrading parts from online sites (hard drive, graphics card, RAM, motherboard, etc) would be a much better(imo) and cheaper alternative. at least it was 4-5 years ago...
