  1. mint choice!
  2. I think you can cut about 8 grand off of it and still be in good condition. There is no logical reason to have something that beastly unless you are creating your own Hollywood 3D animated movie on your own. It's overkill for any software on the market and nobody short of a university would be able to use that behemoth to its full potential. I spent $1500 on my computer last year, built it myself, and have spent maybe another $400 on it since then. It runs Modern Warfare 2 on high graphics with 38 fps. Or are you just bragging that you have lots of money? O_o
  3. It would really help if you told us what you were planning on using your PC for, as some tasks require a better PC than others, and this computer seems a bit extreme for everyday use, e.g. games and browsing the internet. Also, I can't imagine anyone ever needing 4 monitors, perhaps 2 would suffice? A single 5970 is also more than enough. To be honest, i think you only posted this question to show off
  4. Build a computer yourself. Buying one like that is a huge waste of money and if you spent £5000 on a custom built computer you could get an incredibly powerful computer
