lol

 

I trade comfortably off a dell laptop ($190 Walmart + $35 for extra RAM) and an additional monitor I bought off CL for $20. i suppose I could add a third screen for another $20 or 30....

 

Yeah, just make sure you've got a spare "arm and a leg" to pay for it.

I did a test configuration vs a Precision T5810. Was able to match features except for 16GB RAM and 1200W PSU on the Puget vs. 8GB RAM and 685W PSU on the Dell, so there was a little difference.

Puget price, $2797. Dell ~$1129 regular price but can likely be had for $850 or $650 if patient.

 

Deja Vu

 

You can build a powerful PC with an AMD Phenom II X4 965 for about $200 (excl. monitors) that would burn through just about anything trading related.
