A truly enthusiast system - complete with blue flame!

The desire to build yourself a beastly computer is the dream of many Atomicans. Some of you (ourselves included) will research each part, and painstakingly piece it together, lovingly threading cables, and even modding parts to suit our respective personal tastes. Thanks to Deus Ex Technologies: you won't have to!

The specs for the rig they sent us are extremely well-selected, and draw an eerie parallel to our Tech Writer's personal rig. Check them out:

Core 2 Duo E8600 - Overclocked to 4.25GHz!
Gigabyte EP45T-DS3R
Corsair 4GB DDR3 @ 1333MHz, 9-9-9-18
HIS 4870X2
WD Velociraptor - OS
Samsung 750GB - Storage
Corsair HX-620 power supply
Zalman CNPS9700
Antec P182 - Custom Airbrushed!

This is all expertly cabled, and the finish on the paintwork is astounding. Check out the gallery for more, but this is definitely a system that we'd be proud to have at home. We've not personally benched the system, but Deus Ex claims a GPU score in 3DMark Vantage of well over 15,000. You can be sure we'll put that to the test!

I guess the custom artwork would count for a fair amount, it looks pretty good in those pics, mirror finish on the black etc.

$4k is pretty good considering its custom air brushed and if you went to say dell they would charge you probably close to $4k anyway.

not bad, personally i would have chosen some better ram ie: 1600mhz with some better timmings.

i prefer too build my own rigs too, its just preference.

Build your own will always be WAY cheaper. But this system comes with a solid overclock and burn in, the case-spray aline is worth something close to $500, and that price includes an extended warranty.

It's the labour that you pay for on a case like this - it's very well cabled.

Nice cable management. You can tell someone's put some thought and time into this build.

Interesting MOBO choice though, would have expected something along the lines of a DS4P instead at this price.

The copyright would be either Eidos'. They might own the copyright from the Deus Ex game. Deus Ex are 2 Latin words so they might be exempt from copyright.

Hmm, I instantly thought this was a rip off of Deus Ex Machina who make customs moto's in sydney (they are well overpriced too but who can put a price on art?)... Maybe a new venture from them or somebody affiliated? Or someone trying to make a cheap buck off their "Von Dutch" style fad name..

I personally think that m0zes could have done a better job on the cabling.

Hmm, what nice timing. My brother has a machine like this. Except he got a gigbyte case and a gtx280 (with nvidia mobo) powering his 24" ewang.... I mean screen. On the actual price though, the ~3.8k my brother payed was worth it, i mean where else do you get a 3 year on site warranty on everything, including the hell overclocked cpu. So for those who dont build themsleves these are actually great computers as they come out of the box ready go (along with a crisis demo just so you can ooh, and ahh at the graphics)

Yeah I know that nessy... that's why he could do a better job!

I wonder if he teaches cable management courses.

Ive looked at the Deus Ex games, very sneaky.. they're similar.. very similar, but are different. It was very easy to think they ripped Deus Ex's branding and Edos's ip at first glance. I guess they're safe.
