Build your own Playstation 3
I was configuring a pc for a friend who had a budget of around $600, and purely by chance as I added the prices of the first compenents I had chosen, it came (to my suprise) to 599 USD, and whats more, the pc is more powerful than the PS3. PS not a fanboy

You realise the blu-ray is like half the cost of the PS3, right?

X1900Xt costs something like $400... and the PS3 has something akin to the X800 in their systems (the X850 costs like $130 nowadays) So therefore, pwned. However, you get a 5 and an "It is green" for recognizing that PC > All consoles.

People seeing this are thinking that those are the components of the PS3. When we PC people know that these components are C*CKGODLY compared to the ps3 which is a f*cking turd with a questionable processor.

I really dislike the ps3, but this pc isn't more powerful. This pc isn't more powerful than the 360 either. And you did indeed forget an hd drive. compare, Core 2 duo, 2 core prossessor. Cell, 7 core prossessor. And the xbox 360, also has more than 2 cores. Pc's have a while to catch up with consoles this time around but they'll do it eventually. And when they do, a new console will be out.

Funny thing is "Geil" is german and means "horny" "Ich bin geil" -> "I'm horny" But sometimes we use "geil" for "awesome"

Where's the Blu-Ray or Hi-def disk player? That's like another couple hundred right there.

3 Years ago this would have been great... Now that it's 400 bucks this fails horribly.
