iBuyPower took a slightly different approach. Their setup was only single GPU, but they added both quality and processing power. All components rose in price, and attention to detail rose a little. Although one HD3870 card is a bit lacking for a $1000 rig, we get quality components with very decent performance and a great setup. Plus, the iBuyPower only needed another GPU and maybe some more RAM. All other components for a much more powerful system were already there, even without the need to overclock, which would void the warranty. This PC shined during work-intensive tasks, those that didn�t really require graphics power. Thanks to its Phenom 9850 quad core CPU, workstation, rendering, and encoding applications are ideal for this machine. Even in the latest games, it ran decently at high resolutions.
