The ultimate gaming rig won’t be coming from Dell or HP. It just won’t. For bleeding edge performance, you’ll need to custom build your PC with the latest and greatest parts, and if money is no object, you’d be wise to consider the Murderbox MKII ($1200) for your case. The MKII is made mostly of aluminum which is media-blasted using a proprietary process that produces a fine-texture surface which is then finished with black anodizing.  It’s gorgeous and it’s state-of-the-art. Your move, Compaq.
