New Nehalem MAC!

[perkam]

People who think the Mac Pro is overpriced are crazy. Its expensive, yes... But try to build it yourself for any real significant amount cheaper....

It can be done, but its not like youre saving thousands. Just dont buy extra ram from apple... Good god do they charge you for that ram!

You are saving at least a thousand actually. Check the post above yours. I updated it.

EDIT: I'll post it here:

High End Dual Nehalem Rig: (The Kind that Makes you Feel Sorry for the Guy that Paid $16k Barcelona Rig)

Good Board = $500
X5550's = $2,000/pair
12GB Memory (6x2GB ECC DDR3 1333) = $400
750W PSU = $150
2x1TB SATA Drives = $200
1x147GB 15K SCSI = $180
2xCPU Heatsinks = $120
ATI 4870 1GB = $180

Total: $3,730 + Shipping = $3,900

And that's a nice one too.
