      @longmage4 If you read a few more comments you will see that this isn't built for remedial office tasks and multitasking. It is build for Computational Fluid Dynamics and Finite Element Analysis. The extra CPU speeds these processes up considerably.

      @theRAGEclanmw2 I just looked it up and if it really is 14 inches long there is no way you will get it into this case. That seems awfully large for a PSU, I doubt you would be able to get that into most mid tower cases.
