One of my odd hobbies is pricing the machines of gamers I play against. I am always amazed at how much money folks will pay to pwn me in BLOPS2. I have seen a system that was tricked out to the tune of $7200.00. Which is 144 times the price I paid for my first car, and 5 times the price I paid for my first new truck (I'm old). This system is from a BlackOps2 player with the Steam name of "Pity". Remember, I am pricing this probably a year after it was built, and some equipment is already discontinued, so the prices have come down since this guy forked over his mommy's hard earned cash (I hope he bought her some kneepads for Mother's Day!). ( I know, I know, this guy won the lottery, invented Facebook, parents died and left him millions, and he makes $300K a week, his company bought him the computer, so its pocket change to him...amIright?)
