KIller Systems!!!!

OK, people when I say killer systems here,it is not like one of those killer systems that you constantly face in med school ( ok for some, but not the traditional ones).

So if you guys are still scratching your heads, then let me give you a hint...it's to do with the PC, still dunno...ok...next hint...Personal Computer...rings a bell?? NO?? OMG....ok watever.

What you are about to see in the next few lines, maybe entirely geekspeak to you, but take note if you have an insane spending habit especially on gadgets, deep pockets and a crazzzzzy obsesssssssion for the besssssssst and the mosssssssst advance of computer, be it software or hardware and also... if you are a HARDCORE GAMER, read on. Otherwise please redirect your browser somewhere else....

Why am I doing this,errr..it's juz for fun(Take note everything down there is top notch and one of the best.)

OK for starters, to buy a killer system in Malaysia packaged into one very complete combo of juicy and cool stuff is extremely rare. Take a look at Dell, and chances are most of the required hardware will be there, but unfortunately there seems to be a bit of problem with the CPU category, somehow strangely limiting its customers to select only the 930 dual core processor but with more flexibility on the the other hardware like memory, monitor and hard drive. Take note I've not done much research on other companies and so now I shall move on to clone coms, where the beautiful Low Yat Plaza beckons and also the old albeit well equipped Imbi Plaza.

ATI
ATI X1900XTX & X1900XT Crossfire 512 MB(2 cards for your info)

Monitor
So with that kind of 3d card even a 30" monitor is possible but that depends on how big and strong your table is and if you don't mind staring into a "TV", then splash more on a 30" LCD monitor like DELL's 30" monitor OR go for something more modest like a
19"/20" LCD monitor by Samsung, or LG.

Hard Drive

Option 1
Western Digital/Seagate/MAxtor 250GB 16mb cache( definitely ample space for the rest of your computer days...if not go to option 2)
Option 2
Get RAID
and get 2 Seagate / MAxtor/western Digital 400GB 16mb cache

Optical Drive
Option 1
Get a single 16x dvd rom drive or
Option 2
Get a dual layer DVD+-/RW or (if DVD is too big then go option 3)
Option 3
Get a CD RW la.....eeesh

Creative Sound Blaster X-FI Platinum 7.1

Keyboard and Mouse
Anything unless you are a gamer,so it's either an optical or gaming mouse/keyboard.

Speakers
Either a Creative Labs 5.1 speaker/7.1 speaker or
Logitech Z5450 5.1 speaker or
Altec Lansing

Accessories
Surge protector, Hubs, Routers.

So what does this all add up to, well get ready....if you are willing to pay, then make sure your bank account has about RM20000. Yup that's right it's roughly there + some obvious software included like Windows XP SP2 installed already included and maybe Microsoft 2003 bundled together. If you are insane enough to get the 30 inch LCD monitor, then it would be about RM23000-25000. IF YOU GUYS HAVE NOT LOST YOU WAY DIGESTING THE INFORMATION, THEN LET ME SAY THIS....ARE YOU WILLING TO PAY THAT KIND OF MONEY FOR A PC, ahem OR SAY....a new car like a KANCIL?? OR DO YOU THINK IT'S BETTER OFF SPENT FOR CHARITY....???
