How much did all of this cost?

The music industry is a cruel and shallow money trench where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.

Around $1550. It came with the usual bundle MS crap etc. The bottleneck is the video card, but it can run CoD @ 1024x768 max everything damn smooth.

And by 'overclock' we mean 'set it on fire'. *jealous glare*.

Take it all back, and get it for half that price. That system is NOT worth $1550.

I'd be inclined to agree if we're talking US $ here.

That would get you a 3.2 GHz P4(even though it's much more economical to get something like a 2.4 and overclock it) and a Radeon 9800 Pro/XT system easily.

Depends on how much he paid for the moniter. It could be a really supersexy moniter.

It was a gift... I'm not going to say "omg you could have got that cheaper". I'm lucky I even got it. Yeah, the monitor is a flatscreen 19" Samsung. Plus, its a VERY beefy system, I'm just lazy to post the full specs heh. Lets just say if I had a 9800xt, this system would pwn all. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

!!!! The only thing that is different from my computer is the HDD. I only have 60 GB. And I dont have KOTOR yet, but I got plenty of gift-cards to Media Play and also those VISA gift cards, but I think those are going to be spent at expensive clothing stores, and by that I DONT mean A&F, which has to be the worst "fashion" store ever. I still cant believe people in college still buy that crap. You'd think they'd have more sense. But what do ya expect? I go to school with engineers, not liberal arts kiddies.
