all of which are taking in to consideration, (and a whole lot more)come prebuilt in the coldforge,my ego says yes! but my wifey says no,and shes backed up by my wallet!so what else can I say.....catch ya later!


price tag too high? what do you suggest...sell it below cost? this mofo costs $265 to build..it's well worth the money for what you get...go take a look at how much the W8500 is w/o power supply..
