Maybe Mike could answer this if company policy allows?
 
Would be really interesting to see how many people purchased new rigs from CP due to ETW?? I certainly did and their seem to be a fair few on these forums too.
 
Could you imagine an offer!?!?! .... purchase an i7 920 system and get ETW free ... the rigs would be flying out of Newcastle like hotcakes!! LOL

We might do a special system for it actually it's not a bad idea.

There's certainly been a fair few - we'll see how the forum goes

I would love to see the "special" system you create for ETW. Tongue
 
Maybe your marketing people should approach Creative Assembly and ask them about the possibility of such an offer? I'm sure they could discount the ETW games or provide them at near cost levels. You guys must have a bit of clout now in the PC market?
 
Could be a good association ... provide you more sales and provides them a showcase PC to show off their game. Approve

Special system would be if I made it :

Vinyl-wrapped COSMOS case showing E:TW Imagery
i7 920 with V8 Cooler @ 3.5GHz
6GB RAM
RAID 2x750GB F1 Hard Drives
ASUS P6T

Something like that anyway. We've asked them anyway we'll wait for a reply.

Ohhh you've asked them already?? Shocked Please let us know what they say!

Vinyl wrapped Cosmos with ETW imagery ... sweet. What about some S/S OC with a 1GB Nvidia or ATI. The adavanced watercooling if selected could be red to match the red coat infantry ETW imagery.

Thing is you won't see if in a Vinyl-wrapped case as it'd be the COSMOS silver. The V8 cooler's good for 3.5GHz though ^.^

As for graphics, probably a 48701GB I reckon.

I think you are on to something there...

For myself:

1) Cyberpower chosen after much research, and main reason was the forum Geek

2) Timing was all about ETW. I had timed my new beast to arrive so I had it in plenty of time for the release...  even with a few glitches.... 

As regards the spec, I'm lucky I managed to persuade the Mrs that a degree of "future proofing" was needed to ensure a long time before next upgrade.... Thumbs%20Up

... she's not aware of the concept of 2 x GTX 295 in SLi (in effect quad SLi would that be? Confused)

Probably won't need that until Total War: 1914-18 !







Always leave wanting more...

Well Mike, hopefully with your *xxx* overclocking technology the CPU will easily  cope...
