Get a new gaming system AND help out Japan!
Everyone knows that the chaos happening right now in Japan is devastating for the locals. Yes, Japan makes some of our most beloved electronics and gear, and yes, Japan also makes some of the coolest games. But now Japan is in trouble.
Maybe you'd like to help, but maybe you haven't figured out the best way. No worries, several component vendors have joined together to produce a gaming rig that's posted on eBay.
Check out the system specs:

There's less than a day left on the auction, so if you feel generous to donate to the Red Cross efforts in Japan, then bid! The bonus is, you get a cool gaming rig and you help out!

too bad its at $2000
Because the PR manager there contacted me directly about it.

Also, for gaming the I7 2600K would be a lot cheaper and outperform that processor, if I'm not mistaken.
Japan right now is worse than Chernobyl.
Nothing is under control.
Bodies everywhere, thousands still missing, 13,000 found dead.
$2000??
Helps a lot more than you complaining about how others help, (and if you could read you would know the entire amount the PC is sold for is going directly to the Red Cross for Japan relief efforts).
That case is f-ing amazing by the way. Why doesn't NewEgg carry it? I want it, it looks expensive. Very sexy.
It may not be that much in the grand scheme of things, but every little bit helps and it all adds up. At the very least, its better then not doing anything at all.
The problem in japan is that there is a melting nuclear reactor and not a lot of good ways to fix it. Lack of money is not a problem, they are one of the richest countries in the world.
How does giving them money help in any way? they can afford all of the rebuilding efforts. Its like throwing money at someone who is about to get hit by a car. Sometimes, money just doesnt help.
ROFL but so true.
