Need a new small form factor PC for the entertainment room? Why not get a $32k gold PC, recession be damned! You will definitely be cooler than anyone else and all other PC owners will feel inferior the instant they lay eyes on your golden unit. These gold PCs will go nice with those $1M speakers.
 
I've got two...thinking about getting one for the bathroom to go with my diamond studded TP
 
Yet another use of gold that looks more tacky and ugly then anything.

/shrug...more power to them I suppose. Just seems like a waste, given gold done like that just doesn't look good.
 
For 32k I was thinking it'd be solid gold. Not with some lame accents.
 
At first I thought it said 32k gold, like 32 karat gold? Which I was going to have to admit would be pretty damn impressive.

As it stands...meh.

LOL that just reminded me of this... great show!

Back on topic, you'd expect the specs go along with the exterior... something totally über expensive, exotic and on a league of its own...

"Intel Core 2 Quad mit 4 x 2.266 MHz und X4500M HD Grafik-Engine" <------- Cool but meh nonetheless IMHO

It's like buying a Veyron with a Corvette engine... =/

This is exactly my thought. The most they could possibly spend to shove into a custom made case and the highest SFF hardware would be less than $5000.

They think some gold leaf is worth an additional twenty seven thousand dollars??
 
wow, for the second time today (after the MS slip-n-slide) us PC guys can say
MATCH THAT APPLE!! :rolleyes:
 
Why are the most expensive cases out there as fugly as the least expensive cases? :rolleyes:
 
Could have been cool if it were solid gold. Could have used use the body to cool the CPU, Mosfetts, NB, and SB. Just have some flexible heat pipes running out to the body!
 
that would have actually required some thought being put into the things...
 
It arrives at your door, you unpackage it, then you notice on the bottom it says "Made in China". Then you realize you have been ripped off and rush to the manufacturer website only to realize that all the product pics are CGI images. Sort of like those $1M CGI speakers. :rolleyes:
 
bet donald trump has 4 of these things. I heard he's all about gold everything.

Actually, it is pretty high end. It looks like a Psile case, which only takes ITX (and low-power) parts. That quad is a Core 2 Quad Mobile Q9100, which is only one step below the top-end QX9300 at 2.53GHz. No expansion slot in the case, meaning no room for a video card- hence the X4500M (G45M) chipset. Only thing that would improve on it would be if it were 9300-based, and I'm not aware of any Socket P boards with nVidia chipsets.
 
Okay, but can it run crysis on very high settings? (or is doom still the best game you can play?)
 
More fail...

Look at their website under showroom. They have a flat screen TV on the wall with the cord just hanging down. Really, your going to have a show room with extremely over priced PC's and leave the power cord to your TV just hanging out in the open?

That's why I said the specs are cool, but it doesn't stack up to the level of the case, being the most expensive part of the PC... I mean, you'd expect it to have some custom built Intel mobo, processor and RAM or something... Hell, why even stop there? Let's put in gold heatsinks in it!

Like I said, cool but meh, IMHO =P
