Take advantage of this and save on time and Money, as it takes roughly 3-4 weeks to have one of these made for you.

Asking $2700.00

thats about 500.00 of the retail price.

Will consider trades for Cars.

Won't the RAM be underclocked due to 1033Mhz FSB of the processor?

I used to be a computer buff in my earlier years, but I honestly don't know the answer to your question.
What I can tell you is that these units come conservatively overclocked from Alienware, and can still be further pushed by the end user.

RAM is "rated" to work at the speed indicated. They will always work with a speed that equal to or lower than their rating. Going higher and it's a gamble. This is why people buy RAM rated at a higher rating than what their CPU is capable of if they plan to overclock by controlling the FSB. You can also force the FSB to run faster than the CPU FSB but the benefits are usually minimal and can sometimes actually be slower. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
