Asus A8N 32-SLI-Deluxe Barebone Kit has the Asus A8N 32-SLI-Deluxe. Guess which board 2 MP RAM Plus and classy RAM at that Corsair TWINX 2048MB PC3200 Memory (2 x 1024MB)!
our current choice is under $2000. what does the other system have that this one doesn’t (besides an inferiour motherboard)?
What shall we add? A XFX GeForce 7800 GTX Highest OverClocked, a Seagate 500GB SATA-II
, an OEM DVD Burner and a Bluetooth Logitech Cordless Laser Desktop instead of the same one without the bluetooth. That all does not make the thousand dollar difference worth it. Instead you can buy this the model I am recommending the Asus A8N 32-SLI-Deluxe Barebone Kit
and put together a better system yourself by buying some parts from Tiger and letting a local shop slam it togeether if you don’t have the tech knowhow. Here is what I would recommend:
1) Get two of theseHitachi 250GB SATA-II
for $89.99 each and have them setup in a RAID array. That will etiher get faster storage say in a RAID 0 (or one of the new higer numbers) or redundant storage in a RAID 1 or its equivelent. This saves you money over the one big drive and gives you speed on top of the savings.
2) Get this XFX GeForce 7800 GT 256MB PCIe
for $299.00 — this is almost the equivelent of the higher priced card on the system we ARE NOT BUYING. Even has two DVI ports in case you want to plug in a 30 inch montior like I want to.
By the way in case you were wondering, I’m scoping out this system for myself and have been putting a lot of work into getting the best deal for myself which means I’m putting a lot of work into getting the best system you can get. The only thing remaining is DVD Burner so
3)
Get the
NEC 16x DVD Burner
as well go wtih the one they put on the other system, its only $39.00. So the parts would cost you a total of $520 so your saving over $400 over the other sysem and getting a slightly higer priced (and better) motherboard.
So you can put together what Alienware would sell you for almost $5000 for just a tad over half that. You can start the process by clicking here on this name "Asus A8N 32-SLI-Deluxe Barebone Kit" or on the image of our deal comptuer below
