Wednesday, March 18, 2009 by Island Dog | Discussion: Personal Computing

As you might know, we announced that Stardock will be giving away a custom built gaming PC worth over $4000 to the millionth Impulse customer.  I was told the specs, and I’m just in awe of what an awesome machine this is.

I wanted to share the specs of the gaming PC just to give you a taste.  I will update the post once we get some pictures taken.

  • RAM: 12 GB DDR3/1600 MHz Corsair
  • CD:  Sony 5X Blu-Ray Player/DVD-RW Burner
  • Power: 1,000 Watt Power Supply

Whoever ends up with this, is going to be one lucky gamer.

How many folks have bought more than one item.

Me!

GalCiv2/Fredlords ..

GalCiv2/SharkHaveatart

GalCiv2/TwiceRight of the Harbor

ObjectDesktopX/ the whole pack in a rack of a snack in a wack, SkinStudio *alone* is worth MUCH more than the incredible deal i got at 39.95$US (Heck, you can even take off the decimal!) Close enough?

AVGIS8/ Greedsoft of czek republic - no AIG punks overthere, i guess.

Me too...bought the whole GalCiv bundle, Sins, Sins: Entrenchment, Titan Quest, Space Rangers, and I'm sure there is another one that I am forgetting...Hope SD likes my $$$ as much as I like the games that $$$ bought!!!   LOL

Definitely gotten the value out of the $$$ I gave. No complaints here.  In all honesty, who cares who wins, just hope they know how to appreciate such a sweet rig and that they get good use out of it.

BTW, the Z-5500 speaker system is SWEET...I have it on my rig and set-up in my basement.  One of the best purchases I ever made.

I read most pages, but did not see it listed....  what type of  CPU  fan  and/or  CPU cooling  is being used??? 

Being a perfectionist  I want to know all details.

I would assume it's stock cooling for both CPU and GPU. Otherwise it had been posted.
