I'm pretty sure those things were designed for people who don't really have to worry about work or money.  Still, that's a shit load for a one card.

I'm hoping that's a typo. Newegg's most expensive 8800Ultra is $873.99.

You could buy 2 8800 GTX's, 4 Gigs of Ram, A QX6700 and a 1000W PSU and still not be as much as that.

Damn.

If it's not any different from these, then it's a typo.

Even if it is different, how different can it be to justify 3x the price?
