I personally wouldn't touch Cyberpower with a 10 foot pole - they're not exactly known for quality builds or technical support, and RMAs are a nightmare from some of the stories about them that I've read on here. For PC gaming the kind of processing power that X79 provides will be wasted on a gaming rig, and so will 32GB of RAM, you're paying a lot of money for nothing gained. If you build your own you can get a far better system for way less money.

Holy...!
Well, for $3,500 you could do something like this, which is still overkill for so, so many things...I think the only way you could overkill it anymore would be going with a 6 core processor(Intel), which I...don't even know how you would fully utilize it.
