We just bought a HP for my son yesterday from PC World. We were told it has 4 Brains ....

... and all he wants it for is to play 'Runescape'

I would never get the "Ultimate PC" even if I had the money. The Benefit/Cost ratio is very bad. I always buy a couple of steps lower than the cutting edge and only spend money on the components that I know will make a difference for me. I also try to get it balanced so I will not waste money on something that is going to be bottlenecked by something else on the system. Also you can overclock and get better performance for less. My current system (2.5 years old) is overclocked from 1.8GHz to 2.8GHz. Only problem is that my Raptor died and I replaced it with a normal 7200rpm Hard Drive and now the system is much less responsive than it used to

Here’s some of those prices…

€ 334.50 Motherboard: Intel® Desktop Board DX58SO
€ 651.36 Intel® Core™ i7 Processor Extreme Edition-940 2.93GHz
$ 780.00 Nvidia GTX-295
$ 864.00 Intel® X25-E Extreme SATA Solid-State Drive 64 GB
€ 315.15 Intel® PRO/1000 PT Desktop Adapter

There’s your first € 3,000 gone! I recon around € 5,500 all up if you buy them from Europe or the US.

Assuming you won't install (s)vista then?
