Nice enough. What's the pricing on that?

I'll be getting a new system of my own soon enough, the i7 and 5850 ought to do nicely for CoH.

Well done.
I have a 50 in every AT, but Scrappers and Dominators are my favorites.

A Gateway FX6831-01. TigerDirect has it for $1170. I'm a little fuzzy about the PSU but even a poor 750 watt would handle these specs with ease.

That's the one. Tiger direct, CompUSA, and Amazon all get you to the same price of $1169. It seemed like a really good deal after trying to shop retail.
