Yeah, if you compare the scores from the 2 Ghz Althon XP system I whipped together last week verses this bad boy it just crushes it. Not even a comparison... the difference is massive. But, that's the difference in what you can do with ~$800 versus ~$3000. That's actually a helluva good price for what this thing is... you can't even buy a PC pre-made like this really. The only thing even close would be the top end Alienware system, and it'd run you $4 to $5K plus wouldn't be watercooled or have a four drive SATA RAID 10 array (or be overclocked the way it comes).

If you really shop (I had crap coming from at least five states!) online and find the hottest deal on each component from around the country you can build a lot more PC for less money... if you are so technically / mechanically inclined to do it all yourself.
