Tinker Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 "Not only is this almost guaranteed to win PC of the Year, but we can't think of another one on the planet that we want as much. It's stunning. Staggering. Breath-taking. Amazing. We want one. Find a bank to rob, we MUST have one. Star of the show? We think so."

Tinker Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 Well I was chatting with Hammer and colin this morning, and about to play GR, and our area had a power outage. Jumped back on TS using the TS beta app with the mobile phone to let them know. Been looking at this for a while. I drove to Scan.co.uk in Bolton, about 40 miles from here to have a play before I buy this, and they are closed on Sundays! Hey I got to go to McDonalds though, not a bad day. Power was on when I returned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a consumer take on what commercial PCs have been doing all along. It may seem ludicrous, but to develop for X you need to have X+1 systems. If you look at business hardware, the numbers are huge. It's not hard to find a $3.4k USD video card, for example. Niche products? Specialized tasks? Yep. Motherboards that max out at 128GB of RAM, but it's for commercial servers that need to be x86 or x64 compatible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
