As it says in the title, if only I had the spare change! (I daresay my Viper III might try to kill me if I actually purchased this rather than be relegated to the task of media centre laptop! ). Post up the build you would go for if you could afford it, £2.2k max budget here (Lets face it if I gave you more I would just see towers with Core I7 Extremes and 3 GeForce 680's in Tri-SLI with about 200 screens!).
