Tesla MP3 2021
For the geeks out there I am tinkering with the idea of building a new Hi Spec machine. I was considering getting a Mac Book Pro for the fun of it but for the Money and the fact that I would hardly use it I thought why not use the money to build a new system minus a few bits from my current one.
I have been building my own systems for years now so I haven’t got any issues with that but thought I would have a look at what "pre built" systems there are on offer these days.
So I had a look over on overclockers and this little beauty caught my eye.

Pricy I know but I have always fancied going Water-cooled and having it pre done seems a nice idea. The spec I think on this one is pretty darn good and I would only need to make a few alterations on the none essentials i.e no Blu Ray drive as I already have one.
There are a couple of things that I have a few issues with, for example its running on DDR2 memory and has a Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650 Quad Core processor which I know is the dogs dangles but is this technology going to be "left behind" shortly in favour of DDR3 and the Intel Core i7 processors so would it be best to go for a system with this on.
The GPU I know is one of the best on the market and I believe Mr Munson has just purchased one J
I would also need a new monitor, I have looked at these two as examples.

Being Water cooled isn’t that essential but as I say I have always fancied having a WC machine.
Would any of the geeks on here go down the route of buying a pre built machine like this or is it a waste of money and I should build it my self.
Please give me more examples / ideas of specs / systems etc so I can have a think at what to do.
Purpose for the system will be serious gaming and playing with HD content (authoring and playback)
