Eazo desktops offer ultra-luxe style at merely super-luxe prices

For those of you too cheap to pony up for that $700,000 diamond-encrusted Jupiter desktop we saw yesterday, China's Eazo is willing to throw down the luxe for less than a tenth of the price -- which still means the X70, pictured here, stil costs $45,500, but hey. The distinctive machine features a 3GHz Q9550 Core 2 Quad, two NVIDIA 8800GTX graphics cards, 4GB of RAM, light-up liquid cooling, a 10,000rpm 150GB drive backed up by a 7,200rpm 500GB drive, 7.1-channel sound, and Vista Ultimate, all wrapped up in an easy-access case with pneumatic door hinges. Of course, you can custom-configure systems well past the $70K mark (and down to just $9K), but if you're not happy with this stock config, you might want to try yoga or something, Mr. Power Hungry. Check a bunch more shots in the gallery.

And I'd say this machine is worth a lot more than the Jupiter... at least the specs are x10 better.

I don't know... I can probably get this made for two dollars.

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 3:50AM]

For that kind of coin, it better have come with the Optimus Prime keyboard.

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 3:52AM]

I can't find the website for this rig... can anyone track it down?

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 4:55AM]

...Optimus Prime?
You mean Optimus Maximus.... you winner... you

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 8:08AM]

I'd rather have an Optimus Prime keyboard.

for $45,000 this thing should be high quality enough to not contain any lead poisoning.

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 4:20AM]

lead is for t3h sux0rs

this thing is so cool that it's made of solidified mercury. you'll die from mercury poisoning instead, but it's all worth it.

this must play doom

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 4:08AM]

Doom? of course, but the real question is can it run Crysis?

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 9:47AM]

Micheal, you must not get it.

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 4:10AM]

Here's the link, wow eazo!

The alpha and omega of case mods

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 11:10AM]

not really, needs the Lamborghini doors...vertical lifting pneumatic doors, that is so last year

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 4:16AM]

So this system has, at most, $3,000 worth of hardware in it. This makes that dumb ass hinged case worth $42,500? You could get a talented case maker to build you a case like that for probably a few thousand. It's amazing to me that people with enough money to buy something like this don't have enough sense not to.

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 4:29AM]

amen jivetrky. I can't believe it took 11 comments for someone to finally say it.

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 5:49AM]

I would be surprised if they ever sold a single one, or plan on selling any. What would not surprise me is if this is just a publicity stunt. That crazy price got them on engadget and now more people know who the hell Eazo is.

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 2:30PM]

That's right, I'm sure it's all for the publicity. Engadget shouldn't even report this.
Companies like this make me sick!

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 4:53AM]

All that money and they don't even bother to include a SSD? I would have expected an 128GB SSD in place of the 150GB HDD.

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 5:04AM]

WHAT!!?? no Optimus Maximus keyboard?!?!?

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 5:36AM]

It enervates me a lot when the guys from Engadget write about a product and don't provide the URL of the product/company.

Here is the link of Eazo http://eazo.com.cn/produce.html

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 8:39AM]

thanks, I'm totally gonna buy one now.

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 9:57AM]

This is an interesting piece of kit and looks neat but the price point is kind of crazy.

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 5:46AM]

Wait.. what??!?! How'd they get a Q9550 processor?? I've been waiting for months for the new Yorkfields. Have they been released?

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 6:12AM]

It's actually a Q6700 with a piece of paper taped to it saying Q9550.

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 10:07AM]

That's dumb.

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 10:21AM]

Seems powerful,it's big-boss's thing.

[(Unverified) Posted Jan 31st 2008 11:09AM]

Oh god, just read the descriptions in the gallery.

Yeah, this thing definitely plays Doom - on your wallet.
Well, the good thing is that at this profit margin it only takes one or two dumb customers and those Eazo people could have a lazy chinese life for a couple of years...
For this kind of bogus price you can probably have someone carve you a PC out of a steel block. Probably even with his bare hands.

[OneLove Posted Jan 31st 2008 3:41PM]

Are you kidding? It would have to come with free hardware upgrades for life and hot tech support chicks in tight outfits!
