Won't that void the warranty?

The only thing good about that is the 5970.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but

i7 975? Pointless. Shoulda got the 920.
12 GB of RAM? You'll never use over 6, at the very very most.
Alienware? Just.. lol.
Payed for Windows? lulz.

Actually the monitor might be good, but I dunno.

i7 920? more like i5 750

Don't we all pay for windows? (*cough*mods*cough*)

Anyway, he clearly has the money to pay somone else to do something he doesn't care about doing himself... I say let him...

btw: Did you miss the post I made stating this would cost >5000 USD in Denmark? X_x

Don't listen to them. I can certainly understand why you bought that PC. For $2k it's even relatively cheap.

Indeed.

I would buy 3 for that price and make profit while keeping the CPU and graphics card.

If I could get that PC delivered to my door for ~2k$ I'd buy 10, strip it down and sell off the parts individually. A 975 is $1100, a 5970 is $850 here. And then there's the RAM and the monitor. Both would bring in a fair bit too. I figure I could easily make $500 by selling off the parts.

Yeah, relatively cheap versus what you guys would be paying for it. But overall, not too bad really even in US standards.

Maybe you should find someone in the US who is willing to have them shipped to their door and then ship them to you
