This guys computer is impractical...

[Saint Nick]

...but it is, without a doubt, the fastest gaming PC I have ever seen :shocked:

Most powerful in the world? Maybe. I don't know.

Edit: Fixed title.

Why is the new nvidia spokesman a giant disgusting fat fvck?

and two months later, his rig was outperformed by a rig that cost <50% as much.

maybe he is the real life model of the fat zombies in Doom 3?

 

[Kenazo]

That is retarded. And why wouldn't he have gone w/ dual core opteron's while he was at it?

..never mind the fact that in the two months that he was King, there existed no game which made his investment worthwhile. Benchmarks were his only claim to fame.

 

[alkemyst]

depends how much bank the guy has. Chances are as upgrades become available he will have them as well.

cost too much. no point in buying all that if all you have is some benchmark numbers saying your computer is l33t.

call me frugle, but i'm happy with my 6800GT AGP 😛 it plays everything just fine.

I absolutely love that Lian-Li case he's using. I may have to get one for my rig...

 

[Adul]

jeebus.. that would make one hell of a nice server

using workstation rendering cards for gaming is impractical 😛

is there a performance difference? i always thought it would have been better.

Overcompensation? I bet he drives a really fast car, too.

 

[dugweb]

That's pretty cool

Having that comp is about as impractical as fixing up an old hot rod and cruising at 4 MPG... give him a break, It's his passion

The SLI Quadros blow chunks for gaming. Obviously he has more cash than brains. :roll:😀

lol, so how small do you think it is?

 

[Fenixgoon]

whats the point of going dual opteron? they're server cpu's.. wouldnt a 4800+ be better or an fx57 OCed?

Exactly, I'm not sure if the 7800's were around when he built, but that would be far faster and cheaper than dual Quadros. Probably about half the price. Even dual 6800ultras would perform better.

enterprise server is ludicrous. that thing alone costs about $2,300 :Q

his case is nice and clean and pretty though. 🙂
