    It seems a bit expensive for that price. Its only a 560TI in a pc selling for 13.5. I would say no. I think The Joker gave a quote for a pc that topped this one in performance for this sort of price
    contact me if you are in Cape Town and looking for PC Hardware at very competitive pricing. We also do web and graphic design.

    That seems like retail price. If you know people that know people you can do it for a few k cheaper.

    Nice rig, but too expensive IMO. See you already PM'd the joker. Probably your best bet for a solid answer.
