Alienware started selling their dual Geforce 6800 PCI Express systems today. Most reviews of the dual video card setup Alienware is running boast close to double the performance of a single 6800 Ultra system. Pretty crazy price though, if your got 6 grand plus to spend on a computer you could have the fastest gaming computer in your entire state. Imagine running Doom 3 at ultra quality 1600x1200 butta smooth at a stable 70+ fps. I think that Nvidia’s SLI solution is a better idea actually bridging the 2 cards with a special riser card. The breakout box Alienware created could eventually cause driver problems. Check out the link and configure your system. Let me know when you are done and I will PM you a good shipping address to send the system to.

Why the fuck are they powered with Xeons? They're not going to run any servers... May be some geoshitties website and a CS server but that's it! UGH

No, Volls

You could sell your pile, and add that to the 6,000.

Im assuming when you sell urs it would be 2000?

You'll have 8 grand,

Buy a ranger for 3 grand

Then use 5 grand to pimp the shit out of that .

$32,175.00 as low as $965/mo.*
