Processor is i7-920, which is like the AMD PHENOM II. They're both excellent for games.
Motherboard: I'm pretty sure that one is good, I don't think they'd put a shitty one
HardDrive: Great, Sata II/32MB and 2000GB. You can have million porn videos :P
RAM: It's DDR3 and 1333Mhz. 8GB might be too much, but it doesn't hurt. If you'll have XP, only 3/4 GB of ram will be in use. But the RAM is great
CD-ROM: No comment, it has Blu-ray and DVD/CD, nothing else you need. It's probably a fast and normal one.
VideoCard: One 4850 is good. 2 are even better. I'd personaly take the 4890 1GB, but that one wont hurt. Plus it's GDDR5. Nice!
Soundcard: 7.1 is enough ? There is nothing bigger than 7.1 so far, so it's good.
other: Good
You forgot to mention the price. I hope you won't give more than 1500Ђ for this.
But the PC is great!

1500 euros is so much :S
I think those specs could be built for 1500 CAD from tigerdirect.ca
not sure about how much crossfire boards cost, although theyre essentially useless imo if you just take a radeon hd4870 x2
but those spec's should be good for almost anything released today

Well Linx, if he'd build it manually, it would cost him..
Processor i7.920 costs about
260Ђ
The motherboard is about
180Ђ
HardDrive like this would cost about
180Ђ
RAM: DDR3, 1333Mhz and 8GB - He'd probably get 4x2GB which means about 1 is 30Ђ, so it'd be
120 Ђ for RAM
CD-Rom: 60 Ђ ?
VideoCard: One 4850 is about 150Ђ so it'd be
300Ђ two.
Case: 50Ђ
PSU: 150Ђ - You need a good PSU for this.
Which means he'd have to pay around 1300Ђ. You'd save ~200 Ђ but if you don't know how to build computers, buy this for 1500Ђ.
You'll save time and all.

Plus this is a hell of a computer.

Great, I hope you will get Vista or XP temporarily and then change cause of the RAM

Also, post how you think about the performance, since if I get money, I might buy something like this
