Yeah its tempting to get one just to rip all the parts out lol, that could save me a fortune on an upgrade Very Happy

RStudios



Oh and its gone haha, told you... Thread limit would max out too fast Razz

wont that be... horrendously expensive? the Titan on its own would be 1k  Shocked 

RStudios



Think they were gunna be like $800 i think, but not sure

mother of god with those specs you'd figure they would be losing alot of money on each one lol.


if so, I'd save and get one just for the parts inside too lol. Always kinda wanted the i7 cpu just for the hell of it, could multitask like crazy...not like I've ever pushed this i5 though >_>

well, either the specs are wring or the price is wring.

i mean... you could just buy it, gut it, then sell on the parts for a profit :S

RStudios



Well I believe the titan thats in it is one of the lower class ones.... plus gotta remember building these they will get mass order discounts from the suppliers

The Adli Corporation

The Adli Corporation

hmm... i guess so. a lot of good kit for $800 though Razz

RStudios



like i said i THINK it was $800, dont think its been officially announced yet, i maybe wring

The Adli Corporation

i hope its $800 haha, thats £490 which is basically the same as an X1 or PS4  Laughing

The high end models will be about $1,200 - $1,500 I think. There's no way that they can sell a Titan + a 4930k + 500 GB SSD + 32 RAM at $800, even with mass manufacturing. 

Still, we'll have to wait and see.

Frostbyrn

Frostbyrn

Yeah im calling BS on 800$ and a Titan in there

RStudios



actually may have been £800, lol, i'm damn sure i heard the 800 number somewhere

RStudios



OK, it looks like it there are a few different prices out there based on the specs that have been released / rumored...

$550 to $1,500 is to be expected.

RStudios



Only way i'm getting one is if its worth it to rip the parts from, so fingers crossed for it to be on the cheaper scale... sorry for triple post Razz

chunckylover53



Even if it was a bargain i feel like they'd alter it somehow to make it impossible to get them out cleanly.

RStudios



Solder sucker at the ready Very Happy

Did they only give these out to brain damaged morons or something?
Why else would those photos be so shitty. How hard is it to take pics that don't suck.

StormEye

Why would they even put Titan in there, unless they somehow acquired them exceptionally cheap.

There is 780ti, which is cheaper and much more powerful, and even 780 is more powerful than Titan in most games, if you bothered to OC just a little bit.

But since the pic doesn't show the top of the card (unless I missed it) it could just be 770.

Ars Diaboli

Ars Diaboli

I don't think the 780 Ti was even out by the time they were getting the testing units ready.

No way in fuck are they putting a titan, 500gb SSD, 32gb of RAM and an i7 4930 in there for under a grand. Absolute bull.

You know. They should have named it Engine. Ergo, Steam Engine. Would have been perfect, but they dropped the ball.

The guy shouldn't be allowed to call it a teardown. He stops after just taking out the GPU.

No shit, I was disappointed. I wanted to take a look at everything.
