I like it because of 2 graphic cards which is strong enough I think, and you can put up o 16GB ram in the motherboard and 14.4 Ghz :)

Comment please :)
 
Remember, Windows Vista 32bit can only use up to 3gig ram, the rest will be a waste.
Vista 64bit can use up to 4gig(if im not wrong), so i'd use another OS for such high ram etc.

a 32-bit os supports 3.2 GB ram. a 64-bit supports like 128 gb ram or something

so you should run a 64-bit OS with that computer
Seams like a nice price :p

vista 64bit can handle up to more than 16gig as long as the motherboard can.

MS Vista Home 64-bit 8 GB
MS Vista Home Prem 64-bit 16 GB
MS Vista Bus/Ent/Ult 64-bit 128 GB

Non-limited 64-bit OS can support up to 16 exabytes (2^64) of ram. hehe
Motherboards Ive found support up to 24 GB of ram and cost about 400 euro.

Some Calculator said:
A file size of 16 exabytes can also be expressed as
17179869184 gigabytes (abbreviated as G or GB)
1048576 terabytes
1024 petabytes

You got that wrong.. it is only 3.6GHz

Example
Single core just got 1 worker to do the job.
Dual core Hot 2 workers to do the job.
Tripple core got 3 workers to do the job.
Quad got 4 workers to do the job.
___________________________________________

And then there is something called Hyperthreading

That makes it look like you got 8 cores when you in reality just got 4 Cores.

Yes, that PC looks worth it, you might consider renting from a Company (or Lease-To-Own) if you are thinking of spending that much though.
 
Well i would not buy it because of the amount of GHz.. you can get some better computer 100% for 500 pounds lol
 
i would not buy it. but that is me.. Cuz the 9500gt in sli is not good..My 8800gts (512mb) is 2x better than 2 9500gt in sli.

EDIT
Paxton in wich country do u live ?
maybe i can help u find a computer.
 
Never!
RAM DDR2?!
I prefer 4GB DDR3 than 8GB DDR2 :s
Another thing is graphics card, as the man up there said, 9600 isn't good with SLI :s
Depends on how much you wanna spend on it.
