***I’ll toss in a ASUS P8Z68-V LE with this one but it may need to be rma’d before you can put it in the computer. It was giving me trouble and I don’t have time to rma it…
I also have 2 more sticks of ram with this one. The asus board takes 4 the biostar takes 2.

You know what I found in my closet during my move?  An old 6gb Seagate drive that I pulled out of the first pc I built myself...I was so proud, it had 256MB of ram, that drive and Pentium ONE processor!  LOL

Yea...I just dated myself.  I don't even know anymore, are those prices lower than they should be?

I'm not familiar with the Radeon video cards anymore (I use NVidia mostly), but assuming they're reasonably current like everything else on the list, those are decent systems, so the prices are fair.

That I7 is really cheap. I got a similar machine at work 6 months ago, with a generic video card (it's a corporate PC) and it was something like $1,500. Oh yeah, if it's like the one I got at work and I'm looking at specs right, that I7 is an insane machine - quad core, dual threaded - so it acts like 8 cores. Task manager is a thing of beauty like that. :D

I'm an NVidia man myself, but my friend told me those towers play battlefield 3 on max settings very well. He is selling them for less than what he spent putting them together, mostly because they're taking up space at the datacenter and he needs them gone.
They'd be shipping from Michigan, in case anyone was wondering about shipping costs. I can't remember exactly where the datacenter is though. I'll see if I can find out and post some more accurate information!
