Commodore making Gaming PC's

[V_R]

Iconic technology firm Commodore has chosen Cebit as the launch pad for a new subsidiary dedicated to PC gaming.

From April, Commodore Gaming will start selling a line of PCs that cater for the high-end home gamer. Crammed with high-end components, the machines will also sport distinctive artwork on the case. The line of computers will be aimed at consumers who do not want to take on the task of building themselves a machine optimised for gaming. The first four PCs in the Commodore range sport Intel Core Duo or Quad processors, have up to 4GB of RAM, two video cards and hundreds of gigabytes of hard drive storage. All the machines run Windows Vista.

If going by the specs they look good!

What a blast from the past that is! I always liked Commodore (and Amiga, and Sinclair!), lets hope this one can come back and make some headway

They look like nice systems with a good spec too. All good quality parts too.

The top spec pc consists of this...

Intel® Core™2 Extreme Quad-Core processor QX6700: 2.66GHz 8M Cache
ASUS® P5N32-E nForce 680i SLI motherboard
2x 150GB 10000 RPM SATA Raid 0 and 1x 500GB 7200 RPM SATA Raid 1 hard drives
4GB Corsair® Dominator 2xTwin2x2048-8500C5D memory: 1066MHz
Philips® DVDRW optical drive
1000W ICE Cube power supply
Creative® SoundBlaster X-Fi Xtreme Gamer
2x NVIDIA® 8800 GTX 768MB graphics cards

A contender to that OCUK Ultima do you think Ian?
