well, I did a test and I could have gotten (built myself) a computer with those exact specs for $1600 Canadian including tax and shipping. Can probably get it even cheaper if I look around more.

Built yourself is the key there. Its a bit high, but not that much when you consider the warranty, and the monitor, and OS also. I build my own also, and for that much ya I could crush that computer.
I'm taking delivery of this baby today. I won a bit of cash playing Battlefield 2 at pro level (yes I am a geeky eSports player and no I'm not saying for which team). Can't wait for Crysis, Quake Wars and Supreme Commander so I can put this behemoth to the test.
