We've just launched a new pre-built special deal system based on the Intel i7 platform. This unit is priced very aggressively at a special $1,099 (http://www.digitalstormonline.com/gamingcomputers.asp). Enjoy!

Definitely, it's priced to about $1,000 for a general good gaming pc. It's perfect for people on a budget that want to tap into the luxry of buying from Digital Storm. |

I've never seen that CM case before. Looks weird. Great value though!

I kinda like it. Not too fancy, not too boring. did DS use that case in the past or is that a new pickup just for this setup? |

The new i7 powered Gamer Blitzkrieg is a great bargin machine. You can argue that bargin hunters don't care, but I believe you should mention the output of the PSU. I also appreciate that you're trying to keep the price under $1100, but substituting a GTX 260 216 cores (at least as an option) would be worth the $50 price bump.

I agree with BTC, the only down fall of that system is the 250 GTX, otherwise its a great system for a great price and room to grow

I agree completely. As you can see, I use a 250 myself. At resolutions of 1280x980 or less, the GTS 250 is satisfactory, even for Crysis. However, the roughly 10% boost in frame rate that you'd get from the GTX 260 would give you a little extra cushion when things get really "busy". Edited by Bill the Cat - 25 Jun 2009 at 9:04am |

Upgrading to the GTX 260 would be too expensive for the price point we have set...

I am looking forward to a lot more new customers because of Digital Storm's excellent marketing! This new machine along with the custom rigs will definitely get more folks off the fence and getting in to true gaming!!!
