Hello people. I was fooling around on Google, until I found this:

I was wondering if these are the best computer specs that money can buy.
Note: I did not create the list. I just found it.

There is not really "the best specs that money can buy", you could add 2 more SSDs to that and 2 more monitors and more RAM. That is a pretty insane computer though, but there are some parts that could be changed to make it cheaper and the same speed.

no there is a better edition CPU better X79 boards better RAM better GPU's better optical drives much better monitors and it dosent use custom loop water cooling or a platinum cert PSU
Apple is like North Korea, they give their consumers crap products, isolate them from other platforms, and brainwash them into thinking they (apple) are amazing.

that build is overkill to the point of stupidity. you wont use 1/4th that power, and the CPU is stupidly expensive for no reason what so ever

Possibly one of the worst builds I've ever seen. What's your budget, or where you just messing around?

If a Jewish man is free to grow his beard, a Muslim man should have that same right without being called a terrorist. If a Christian Nun is free to cover her head, a Muslim woman should have the same right without been called oppressed. No double standards!

Best specs is a little subjective, hard drive space is a luxury, you can have as much as you want to spend money on, monitors always come in "more and bigger" varities, they also aren't really a spec. RAM is about limited to the biggest motherboard you can get, along with the CPU. I mean really you can strap 4 video cards too, there's so many varieties and different specializations of things that it is hard to say anything is "best."

Well that's just stupid. It's of no use in gaming and for other editing programs you'd propably get Xeons anyway if the programs cannot use GPUs.

Oh, goodie.

It's just a factory overclocked 3960x, which has almost no improvement over the 3930k for $500 cheaper.
