It's great. Nice to be able to play games on very high graphics levels. Sorry about the images. Don't know what went wrong there.

Directly link to the images, make sure the URL ends in the image format, eg. jpg or png instead of a slash or backslash.

I have a dream computer like that, the only problem is that it costs 7777 € / 10498,95 $..!
Thus, from the war of nature, from famine and death, the most exalted object which we are capable of conceiving, namely, the production of the higher animals, directly follows. There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved.

I put together my own gaming computer for the first time about 1 year ago, and the specs are REALLY similar. Same exact CPU, same RAM speed and quantity, ASUS MoBo instead of Gigabyte, and I think slightly worse video card: GeForce GTX 460, 768MB. I've been enjoying my rig so far, so I can imagine you are enjoying yours! Have fun!

No actually the same site released a computer called "Kraken" for 9119€ last autumn!

... why do I have this feeling you're referring to the supercomputer Kraken at the University of Tennessee ...

If you aren't referring to that, then let me share a secret with you: the $4000 1TB SSD is NOT worth the money (UNLESS you're specifically building a fucking supercomputer and want to blow your college, retirement, and bank loans and savings accounts in one day, and have aspirations to own a faster computer than the K computer, in which case, go right ahead, it's your money).

Here is the link, unfortunately the site is in Finnish so you will have to go to a translator and yeah do the work. Of course people will be more interested on whats at the bottom of the page..!

That is about seven times as much computer as Slayr's. "like that" was the wrong phrase to use.

I think you can give me an exception. I have papers on developmental dysphasia, dyspraxia and dyslexia
