I get a discount through my job. They have a partnership with apple so i get an alright discount. It allowed me to do the antiglare hi res screen upgrade and get the rig for 2k

damn that's cool, that's a good $400 or so savings... can I send you money and buy one for me? hahahaha nah just kidding

I think you should deliver 3 times a week

haha oh more than that... I'm not like Martin you know haha

Thats the plan. Im going to get the dell 24 screen. That should do me well. I believe the mac screens are IPS. Not sure though.

yeah I think they are IPS panels as well...

Well, its not a cheap rig. I spent about $2600.00 (CAN) on everything and then built it myself. The main parts of my system consist of the following:

-Coolermaster HAF 932 full tower case
-Gigabyte 890FXA-UD5 mother board with USB3, SATA3
-AMD Phenom II 1090T x6 3.2GHz
-8GB dual channel DDR3 RAM (upgradeable to 16)
-Gigabyte HD 5830 videocard with 1GB GDDR5 RAM (room for a second card)
-Coolermaster SilentProGold 1000W power supply
-Coolermaster C300 128GB SATA3 SSD drive for programs
-Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB SATA3 HDD for storage
-Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
-ASUS 25.5" widescreen monitor (1920x1200 native resolution)
-other goodies like blue-ray drive, and other tid bits

Only 3.2 on the 1090T? Cmon man you can do more than that Go to 4.2!

My friend was trying to get me to go to an AMD/1090T-based system but price wise its within $100 or so of the i7-2600k I wanted....Even he conceded its probubly not worth it given the 2600k smokes anything this side of a 980X...

I also have a Dell 24" monitor, Love it to death, Cant decide if im going to replace it with a 23" 3D-capable Asus or go for the 27" Dell Ultrasharp....Either way im getting heavy duty GPUs

I wish people would buy a print or something so i could get my computer faster

I saw your benchmark numbers and feel your pain!

hahaha ohh I always had big appetite Alex... I think its the activity that changed that's why I got fat. I used to deliver our goods everyday, now I just sit on the desk..

Give your delivery guys the desk position once in a while and go do the delivery yourself!

monk3y wrote in post #11912211

Well, you're not doing enough of it. Do more!
