Read here, same questions answered just yesterday.
In summary- Komplett should be ashamed of themselves for advertising dual 8500GT's as gaming cards for a gaming machine, you would have to play most of the latest games on lowish settings with that junk...
One single 80 euro 256mb 8800GS would absolutely obilterate those 8500GT's by a huge margin, for example.
I'd say at this stage Komplett can go **** themselves, they just get worse and worse in my opinion and I haven't bought from them in a long time. Upgrading to 9600GT Sli for example brings that machine to almost 1.2k, an absolute joke. For that price elsewhere you'd build an infinitely better machine....in fact even buying parts from Komplett you'd save a lot of money by self-building. Just clearly shows the level of care Komplett have for their customers......I would love to see the face on somebody who got their brand spanking new 1k machine with dual video cards only to see Crysis limp by on low settings. :rolleyes:
check out www.hardwareversand.de, for example, their prices make Komplett look ridiculous, and they only charge 20 euro for assembly, whereas with that price Komplett are clearly taking.....a little more. :rolleyes:0 -
For example, if you bought the parts separately - and assembling really is very easy - you can get something like this. Now, going for Hardwareversand and you'll save even more on this, by a good margin - it's only an example of why you shouldn't buy that pre-assembled piece of poo.
Radeon 4870 VS Dual 8500GT - this is the difference between running games at lowish settings on normal resolution and running any game including Crysis at high settings at relatively high resolution. Night and day simply doesn't cut it.
Blu-Ray/HD-DVD Reader vs DVD-RW - watch HD movies on your new machine.
4Gb vs 2Gb - twice the memory, speaks for itself.
Vista VS XP - no real reason to stick with XP at this stage.
750GB vs 500GB HD - much more storage space, 32mb vs 16mb too.
650w VS 550w PSU - same brand, much better for future upgrades.
The one thing the Komplett machine has going for it is a good motherboard, but drop down to a cheap one and you've still got an outrageously expensive machine, and I honestly don't think a user like you would benefit from such a board whatsoever.

For example, same basic machine, not really compromising anything, but with 64-bit OS to utilize all that ram, and a much better video card. Add shipping and assembly and you're still under 1k. I noticed I also put in a slightly more expensive case, detract a tenner to use the original Alpha (which is a really nice case)
