Btw I just phoned Boxx reseller in Germany and the guy was very friendly and spoke for ages. The best part of the conversation was that I can configure the PC on BOXX US site and then forward the details to him and pay exact $ to Euro conversion price. Which basically means I would be paying US price for the machine in Switzerland. Sounds good to me as things are lot more expensive in Europe compared to US. Plus I also get free delivery if I decide to go BOxx way.

Btw I found this company and they seem to build kick ass Opteron machines. I am not sure if they would make one for a single customer like me. Plus their website has no info on price or what parts they usec. A guy from their company will phone me tomorrow so we shall see. I am not hopefull though.
Jerry the problem with X2 4800 etc system is that the motherboards for it don't support too much RAM. I use Maya and the Opteron MOBOs can use 4GB under Win64. Plus when MAya 64 bit comes out I can bump it up even more on Opteron MOBO's.

Thanks Jerry. Yes I was counting on Digitec for last 9 days for a quote. On the phone they said that it will be ok but then they e-mailed me finally few hours ago-
"Hello
Unfortunately we don’t have any supplier from whom we could order different parts you asked for."Yes I guess if I can't solve the problem then I would have to get a X2 4800 machine

Ganto thanks for the reply. Yes I asked Transtech if they would build it using a good tower case instead of the tiny crap case they use. They said that they cannot as everything is factory tested bla bla bla.
You know if I am going to spend CHF 6-7000 I would like all th eparts to be good not some crappy stuff they put to increase their profit margin. I wish I could buy BOXX technologys PCs in CH!
CH is too small
