[QUOTE="JUSCUZIAM, post: 580387, member: 46728"] Hi, thank you for the great info, No I do not own a Mac personally I use one at work and like it very much. It is error free, I have windows on it only so I can access Mionet Server and my Canon 8180c as there are no drivers for Mac. I heard you can SLI video cards in Windows but nothing firm yet. Yes I could go out and buy a $6000.00 dollars Dell xps (with a inefficient power supply and cooling problems and the list goes on) but I don’t want to invest in poor quality. Gaming is a high priority for me as I have been gaming since 94' and I am still currently gaming and compete on several servers. I am willing to sacrifice some areas as I already have a gaming system with and 8800 ultra, no big deal, I just want a super system and with a pro I wont need to swap out mother boards as the current chip set will be around for awhile, I hope. I guess I truly wont know until I buy one and see for my self, but hey I guess when I do I will report back my finding here so that we will know for sure from a real gamers point of view how Mac stands in the game realm. I know at some point apple will be a contender in the market. I will post my finding so check back in a month, I will order my system tonight. Thanks for all your replies I found them very helpful.
