Maingear wPhexX58 Elite Gaming PC Core i7 975 Extreme Gaming Powerhouse

Having reported earlier today about the Maingear Pulse Gaming PC we felt
obliged to follow up with news concerning another Maingear PC aimed, not
at the 'green gamer' (as is the aforementioned Pulse) but at the extreme
gamer looking for maximum power at the expense of a somewhat greater
carbon footprint - namely the Maingear wPhexX58 Elite Gaming PC.

The Maingear wPhexX58 Elite Gaming PC fits very much into the high-end
element of the gaming PC market with a range of powerhouse CPUs under
the hood taking in a 3.2GHz Intel Core i7 975 Extreme Edition down to a
2.66GHz Core i7 920 whilst packing the Intel X58/ICH10R chipset, either
single or dual graphics cards - including 2x NVIDIA GeForce GTX 280 or
2x ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2 GPU options - and up to a colossal 12GB of
Triple Channel DDR3 memory spread across no less than 6 dedicated DIMM
slots.

Other notable optional features of the Maingear wPhexX58 Elite Gaming PC
include up to 1TB HDD or dual Raid 0 hard drives totalling 2TB storage
capacity and Sound Blaster X-Fi High Definition Surround Sound Audio
whilst, from a connectivity perspective, you're looking at 8 high spped
USB 2.0 ports, SATA and IEEE 1394b (powered) ports.

Powered by a 1000 watt multi GPU approved PSU (ensuring that, as alluded
to above, this gaming rig is far from eco-friendly) the Maingear
wPhexX58 Elite Gaming PC, as you'd probably gathered, doesn't come cheap
with prices starting from $5,660.
