I hear ya Geo. What did that run you? (If you don't mind me asking... I have same processor, bigger HD, more memory, slightly lower video card.)

Edit: Before you play FF on highest settings with that box...lock your door, take off your pants, and put a towel in your lap.

Sounds about right....I dropped ~$1100 for mine, and that without monitor(already had a good one).

My advice about the towel still stands, though.

Actually, that one is a quote from Circ from a while ago. I just made sure it was made official Tech forum policy.

You fail due to the fact that Itaniums suck for gaming, and that would be if you weren't being a jackass.

Why not more RAM?

Anshinritsumai, if you aren't making that up, you win. I aspire to something like that, sir.

..as long as your 1kW PSU is modular. And I'd probably go for Kingston RAM but it's just personal choice I suppose.

PULL THAT FUCKING SHIT OUT OF THERE NOW AND PUT A REAL POWER SUPPLY IN, OR I WILL MAKE YOU RELIVE THE BME PAIN OLYMPICS! NOW! TT is among the WORST companies for PSUs out there, they rebadge crap from other companies. Please... it makes me sad to see that.

Plus, your old PSU prooobably runs at more than 50w .
