how this set of system performance
Wista performance tools? The score is 5.1, which is a pretty good result.

The last interesting question, how much Money does this ideal Vista system have?

Please see the price below:

No doubt, the price of $2525 It is definitely a bit higher today, but it has a RAID 5 array of 3 hard drives. You can use only 1 hard drive, so the price will drop to $2047. If you change the graphics card to 7600GT, you can save it. Note that we are talking about the general Vista system instead of the game level Vista, so the total system price will be reduced to less than $2000. The CPU can also be compromised. The E6700 can be replaced with the E6600. The motherboard can also use the P5B standard version, which can be reduced by $28, and the total system price will be $1667.

This should be a good Vista system with excellent performance. The only drawback is the HD drive and DirectX 10 graphics card. This is due to the lack of related hardware on the market. Overall, this is a fast Universal Vista system.
