CyberPower's Black Mamba Rig Evolves, Receives "Lethal Upgrades"
Boutique system builder CyberPower today announced it has completely redesigned its Black Mamba custom gaming machine, which the company describes as "the cornerstone of the Fang Series."
CyberPower's not kidding about the overhaul. Everything about the Black Mamba has been replaced or rejiggered, including the chassis, which now consists of Corsair's Obsidian 800D enclosure.
On the inside, the Black Mamba now comes equipped with the new Xtreme Hydro custom cooling kit, Intel's still flagship Core i7 975 processor, Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD4P motherboard with "the latest special BIOS that allows for improved overclocking and support for...Gulftown that will be released" next year, a pair of Radeon HD 5870 graphics cards, two 64GB Kingston SSDs in a RAID 0 array, and plenty of other goodies.
The redesigned Black Mamba doesn't come cheap, with the base MSRP set at $3,800. Yikes, someone pass the anti-venom.

2 4870 video cards??? really?? I have upgraded 3 times since I had the 4870's in crossfire. I had the 4870x2 and the 4890's in crossfire and now 5870's in crossfire. If someone is going to pay for a "flagship" product one would expect an Uber rig Full of Uber parts, not mostly Uber stuff and last years (2008) video cards. but that is just my opinion.

That was actually a typo and should have reflected a pair of 5870 videocards, not 4870. Whoops!
