Besides the new Envy 133, Voodoo is also launching its 22-inch tall, all-aluminum (glass, wood, and leather too) Omen tower. This time, for gamers. It features a 7-inch, 800 x 480 display for secondary information on the outside and a Voodoo designed water cooling loop on the inside to keep the fire down on up to 2x CPUs (up to 16 cores) and 4x GPUs. The system tops out with a pair of 3.2GHz Core 2 Extreme QX9770 processors, 8GB of 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM, and support for "next generation" NVIDIA and ATI graphics... at a price. Starting at around $7,000 and available exclusively to existing Voodoo customers at launch sometime later this year.
how do you get a 22 inch tower into a box???????
but how bout you throw in maybe a Woodcrest Xeon (2x of course) as an option and maybe some toshiba MRAM
was the only reason they put carbon fiber plating on the envy 133 because they used all the aluminum in the world for this
and if it water cooled, wouldnt this thing need to sit in a swimming pool if it was operating at full capacity?
and if you build your own powerplant, you could put 1.93 volts in this thing like those bastards from who knows where and try to overclock this thing at 1 THz
that is worth 7k
damn has HP turned it around
also, just watch NVIDIA
they are gonna come out with an entirely new line for this, one that gobbles up soooooo much power that it could rule the world
but a 2000 GTX with 2 GB onboard ram and (with a partenership with Intel of course) Intel C2E 3.00 GHz onboard processing power times 4
that would be absolutely amazing
12 GHz and 8 GB of video
that could use enough power to light and heat and cool a city for one year in 5 minutes
and it will be able to run Crysis on full res and FR for ever
finally
It looks great. I mean, if I was rich I'd buy one, but come on. Just build your own computer.
I personally would rather a cheaper computer with less decorations on the box; better performance is definitely better than decorations, though the decorations DO look kinda nice...
In the words of the Unreal Tournament 2004 announcer: Holy shit! :-D
Now if voodoo would sell this case without the other components then I would certainly buy from them
