To kick off it's tenth anniversary, boutique system build iBuyPower has launched its second-gen Chimera 2 gaming system. Like the original, the follow-up act sizzles on stage with a fiery exterior, but with a "completely redesigned signature Chimera Inferno II Chassis."
The color scheme now wraps around the entire chassis, with the chimera flame design covering 4 exterior surfaces (front, right, left, and top panels). Underneath it all sits either a Phenom II X3/X4 or Core i5/i7 foundation, depending on which base configuration you start out with. The Core i5 base comes standard with a Core i5 750 processor, Asus P7P55D LE motherboard, 4GB of DDR3-1333 memory, an ATI HD 5750 videocard, 750GB hard drive, 700W PSU, 22X DVD burner, and Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Surprising affordable, pricing starts at $1,100 (or $999 if building around AMD).
Don't feel like buying one? To celebrate its 10th birthday, iBuyPower said it's giving away a Chimera 2 system with a Killer Xeno Pro Gaming card.
"We are excited to be celebrating our tenth anniversary and wanted to thank all our customers that helped make it happen with a giveaway and hot new system," said Darren Su, VP of iBuyPower. "The Chimera 2 gaming systems are fully loaded and feature a new aggressive design sure to impress."

As an actual (former) customer of ibuy Power; I can tell you all - Don't waste your time.
Bought a system from these guys about 7 years ago. DOA - Sent it back. System came back DOA again. I mean...I can't believe these guys are still in business. LOL, look at their BBB rating. Are there really that many people still buying this overpriced crap?
Well, on second thought; maybe I should thank them. After my experience with iBuy Crap, I learned how to put together a PC myself. So....thanks iBuy Crap...I would have never experienced the joys of building my own rig had I never experiened the ineptitude of your system builders and tech support!

so apparently someone didn't realize that people might not buy monitors that burn up. Why are the flames out of the screen border?
