Packard Bell gaming PC out next January The Packard Bell iPower X2.0: a gaming machine with more grunt than Sharapova

Frag me! The Packard Bell iPower X2.0 desktop PC is one powerful gaming machine. If this was a person it would probably be the love child of Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger… on a cocktail of creatine and steroids.

It has been on the gaming circuit for a while, but is actually going to be available to buy in January. So what do you get for your money? Well, a high-end model comes with an Intel Core 2 Quad processor, 8GB of memory, a whopping 3TB of storage for all your, ahem, specialist video files, watercooling, HDMI, DVI, Blu-ray and a GeForce 9800 GX2 graphics card.

What does all that mean in English? Well, it means your game of Crysis will run smoother than the water off a killer whale’s shiny back. Prices will start at just shy of a grand.
