I've recently switched to a mac book pro after some things came up which were limiting me from using a desktop. Health wise it was a necessity for me to start using a laptop unfortunately. I finally got this system back to scratch.
What's included.
Cool Master S Chassis
This is a very large tower. Very spacious. I had six hard drives in this computer when I was using it and it could easily fit twelve or as many burners as you may want, etc. It's one of the better Chassis you'll find.
Not 100% sure on the exact make of the mother board. I did install a brand new asus motherboard when I was doing the build to accomodate the processor.
Intel I7 Core 2600k 3.40 Ghz processor. This is the overclock version and I've heard some people pushing 5+ GHz. I've not overclocked it once though. The 3.4 GHz has been overkill for just about anything I've wanted to run.
The CPU & CPU fan are worth $400 alone.

Nvidia GeForce GTX 285 1GB video card
16GB Sector 7 DDR3 Ram
D-Link Wireless Extreme N card
1 TB HD with fresh and clean install of Windows 7 64 bit.
DVD/CD Burner that plays Blu Ray's. Does not burn Blu ray's however.
Antec 650 watt power supply. I believe this one can run up to 9 different drives. Extremely quiet.
Soundblaster Audigy Sound Card.
Zalman copper CPU cooling fan (it's huge).
I'm leaving out a lot of the little things but this will give you a real good idea of the capabilities of the system. It's extremely fast, very quiet and extremely mod friendly.
I'd basically tell you this is the last computer you'd be buying for a very long time as it's extremely easy to upgrade this system by buying new components at will.
Asking price, $1000 OBO.
Before you even think of low-balling just consider that a similar system elsewhere will run you $1600. This is a good deal and only being offered on beyond.
You can put many many many hard drives in this thing. The original hard drive caddy will hold 4 drives. You can put another 10 , yes 10 more for a total of 14 drives in the front of the machine. The chassis was created for people who require a serious machine.
