14 DAY TRIAL // Custom PC builder Origin has just announced that it has updated its desktop line in order to feature Nvidia's recently released GTX 560 Ti graphics card, three of its systems now featuring this GF114-based GPU.
Starting from top to bottom, the most powerful system to get the GTX 560 Ti as an optional, is the impressive Big O gaming machine that packs a full-sized water-cooled computer together with a liquid cooled Xbox 360 Slim console inside the same chassis.
The PC side of this beast is powered by an Intel Core i7 CPU that is overclocked at 4.5GHZ, customers also having the option to configure the system with dual Intel Xeon X5680 processors pushed to 4.3GHz.
In addition, up to 12GB of Corsair GT 2000MHz memory and four graphics cards in Quad SLI can be installed, the base configuration starting at $7,449.
Next in line is the Genesis, Origin's “customization king,” that can be setup to feature either AMD or Intel processors (including Sandy Bridge), air or liquid cooling, single, dual or triple graphics cards as well as a pair of storage drives (HDD or SSD) in RAIO 0 mode.
Its pricing starts at $1337 and Origin allows for up to 16GB of DDR3 memory to be installed, depending on the platform chosen.
And last but certainly not least is the $999 starting Millenium, that packs first generation Intel Core processors (LGA 1156 socket), up to 8GB of dual channel DDR3 memory, air or liquid cooling, single and dual graphics cards as well as a pair of storage drives that can be configured in RAID 0.
“As an Nvidia launch partner, no one offers the latest graphics technology before Origin does,” said Kevin Wasielewski Origin CEO and co-founder.
“The GeForce GTX 560 with its amazing performance and low price point might be the best price-to-performance graphics card that Nvidia has ever created,” concluded the company's rep.
All the systems are already listed on Origin PC's website and the users have the option of choosing between regular and MSI-built GTX 560 Ti graphics cards when building their systems.
