You don't want a motherboard or a soundcard?

Does that price include VAT? Cost to send you the machine?
Is it just me or that CPU is too expensive?
Here is one cpu like that http://www.dabs.com/uk/channels/components...?quicklinx=3P7C that costs about 300 less than your cpu.

I still say that for a powerful gaming PC you need to spend about 1000. What about monitor? Case? Keyboard, mouse?

for cash you can quite often get better prices from those little backstreet computer shops...

But maybe they'll sell their last PCs at extra-low price, if they have closed all the shops...
