I see PCWorld magazine has an ODE-4 with a i73930K CPU and a price of $3499. It was given a Best Buy rating. So did DS ship a special build ODE-4 or did PCWorld get the specs wrong? Or, are we getting a new ODE-4?

Curious minds need to know, Alex.

I'm wondering if its the early year version with CF 7970's?  Before Kepler cards ( 670/680) came out?

Hi bprat22,

That is possible but I don't think DS has had a ODE with a 3930K before.

I think they did, but you could be right. 
I don't remember  what happened yesterday. Hahaha

It could be an older spec. There aren't any new ODE Level 4 configs in the works right now, what's on the site is new.

How recent was the article?

Hi Frank.... I found this in Digital Storm Reviews section.

Looks like the same rig. Maybe PCWorld recycled an old article from somewhere.

I'm on a tablet so not sure that link pasted right.
