DESCRIPTION NO LONGER VALID?????
Anyone notice that the way these are described is now just an option?
"All system cables are single sleeved and custom-tailored to the chassis"
$99 Option (Is not standard/included at any price model level)
Not that the write up claims any high end cooling is included in the price it certainly eludes to it. All 3 systems priced w/ Corsair H60 (which I am sure they get for a steal).
Some of the options are priced very well with the consumer only paying the difference you would probably imagine if you build it yourself. Some of the prices (SSD) seem to be lower than what you would expect to pay.
The choice of RED HDDs is interesting. Not at all the wrong choice but I wonder if it is a price, heat, power usage, performance or network media serving that they had in mind when selecting the REDs as the only drive choice.
IMO Great price given the case they include.
If you went out and bought all the gear you'd be looking at ~$670 add $50 for the AP-15s your at ~$720 So $1080 for an amazing custom case, 7" LCD, Labor and shipping) at least $100 for shipping I would think. Plus you can throw in a second 120GB SSD for half the retail price.
Oh add $100 for the windowed case
I wonder how well they would do if they sold the case separately as well.
Nice read
