Not bad, but it really is too expensive for that setup.
2500 for a 7800GTX SLi with a 3800+ X2?

$2,699.99 = £1,514.82

Doesn't look to be amaxing value though, compared to a similar computers on sale here in the UK. (http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/pcrange.html?NX2 for example)

edit: what Henry said...

Well, true. But I never cared much for what a PC looks like and if it's not your money then that's different I suppose

Have to agree with Donut.... the hardware is nice, but the case is downright disgusting.

Regardless, I'm happy for you doing well in HS, and getting a cool gift for it... now you can run with the biggest games, no worries about your rig's power
