You could probably make a better computer for less.

Woot for newegg. They rock.

If you can afford that, I am jealous. I would suggest buying a second Raptor and setting up a RAID configuration. It will be fucking SCREAMING if you do.

Hm... When I added it up, I got $3,615.48 US. One of us was $82.00 off, but it doesn't really matter, I was just saying (it could be a little cheaper than you think it is). Anyways, good luck on the computer and putting everything togather. Have fun ^_^

EDIT: I didn't add the $$ from the keyboard, mouse, or speackers. Also, before you buy the keyboard, make sure that you can press all 4 keys down at the same time for some SM songs. My keyboard won't let me do it even with num lock, so I can't FC several songs. >_<

Either take my advice, or buy from ABS. Excellent computers, really fast and very affordable.

Alienware is great, if you get mid-range everything. Then its not too expensive.

BTW, that looks a little pricey. You could probably do a little better for that much.

And when a new Graphics card from Nvidia or ATI comes out, which will happen within a year or so, get it because it will be awesome and worth it.

I wish I knew what I were talking about.
