   Hey guys just got my new system really up and running, and I wanted to plug the company I got most of the parts from. They were as cheap if not cheaper than buying everything separately from Newegg and putting it together myself. They did such a good job I wanted to spread the word. I did weeks of research and they have by far the best track record and build quality / price of any online custom workstation builders. They also offer outstanding personal support - in the middle of the build I decided to upgrade the PSU and it only added an extra day to the order. And they'd already had the original one installed. Anyway, here's the company http://ironsidecomputers.com/. I'm definitely not a shill for them, just want them to do well.

For those curious the specs are

32 GB 1600 MHz RAM
nVidia GTX 480
6-Core i7 3930K CPU 3.2 GHz (overclocked to 4.7)
closed-loop liquid cooling
4 TB storage / 160GB corsair force GT SSD
Asus p9x79 motherboard

All of that set me back about $2,300 shipped. If anyone wants to see benchmarks I'm happy to share. I was getting over 180 Gigflops / sec on linpack tests
