Long time multiboxer looking to upgrade my computer. Right now I have a MacPro running in Bootcamp with the following specs -

- Intel Xeon E5-1620 @ 3.7 GHz 4 core
- AMD Fire Pro D300 x2
- 32 GB of Ram

I'm thinking of going with the below for my teams of 8 and want to know general thoughts -

Cost isn't a concern and I lost patience with building machines a long time ago.

Is there a better prebuilt that is also compact and simple?

Thanks for any response.

I have a machine built for me by Origin PC 5 years ago that hasn't suffered more than a couple of fan replacements, I'd endorse them if money isn't a concern.

I would suggest doing some research on bloat-ware (called "value-added software" by the OEMs) before buying. I haven't bought a pre-built desktop unit in so long I can't comment on any of those, just productivity laptops. :P
