Wtf is this a joke? $117,928 for a computer... Be real, even if this for work it's still not worth it.

 

Edit: Why is this called a "budget build"? Must definitely be a joke. Not funny.

thanks level, and to maroc.... its a very very large budget and I'm not paying

More Information

Redundancy check anyone? Seriously $117,928? I want to know why you are spending $200 on just keyboards and $4600 each for monitors. Can't you just settle for regular monitors?

I've never built a server, but it seems like you can trim a couple thousand or more off the price by going through and getting rid of all the stuff you don't need.

Who is paying BTW?

More Information

Nice. Those server parts are amazingly expensive.

Wrong. As soon as he clicks the "buy" button all that money is wasted. Paying that much for a computer is pointless whichever way you look at it. Why not go buy yourself a nice car and go pick up some pussy? :sol:
