Tech's Notes

The Black Edition processor means that it uses half of the wattage, resulting in half of the power being consumed. It also means that we can install a smaller wattage power supply. The power supply itself is a modular power supply unit. Meaning that you only use the necessary power cables for the unit, resulting in about half of the wires of a normal power supply (reduces heat, clutter, and especially better for cases with side windows).

 

The motherboard, graphics card, and power supply all support dual NVIDIA video card SLI configuration so it's fully adaptable to add more componets. With the graphics card having 896MB and 4GB of RAM, it will run any video game possible on the market with future games being supported as well. As always, if the need arises, you can always add that second video card in the future to give you the extra edge.

 

The computer case had two fans for cooling, but I added another in the front for extra cooling. Combined with the extra large CPU cooler that was purchased, there is no way that it would ever overheat. With the front fan that I installed, it blows most of the dust and other particles through the front of the case, minimising cleaning.

 

Customer already had a keyboard, mouse,speakers, and a dvd-rom for us to install, so there was no extra cost there.
