BFG Tech Launches first full system
BFG Technologies, known as a leading supplier of premium power supplies and 3D graphics cards, is excited to announce its first line of complete gaming and multimedia PCs, called Phobos. These sleek hand-built, high performance machines were designed with the “Graduated Gamer” in mind. This audience is looking for all the performance associated with a high-end gaming system, but none of the hassle related to building and servicing such a system. As a result, Phobos is sold with complementary Concierge Service which includes expert in-home installation and a six month follow up maintenance visit.
“Phobos was designed for gamers and media enthusiasts who demand top of the line performance, but may not have the time, desire, or expertise to build or maintain a high end system,” said John Malley, senior director of marketing for BFG Technologies. “Our Concierge Service ensures our systems meet those high expectations—delivering Unbelievable Performance without monopolizing our customers’ time.” Phobos is designed with the highest-end components available, featuring the Intel® Core i7 965 Extreme Edition 3.2GHz Processor, two upcoming BFG NVIDIA® GeForce GTX 295 Graphics Cards, and CoolIt® Contained Liquid Cooling Solutions to keep both the GPUs & CPU cool during the fiercest of gaming battles. BFG Tech also outfitted Phobos to serve as a home theater command center by choosing Windows® Vista Ultimate with Media Center, including four hard drive bays, offering RF remote and TV tuner with DVR functionality, a front slot-loading Blu-ray Disc® drive, the option for 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound audio cards, and an integrated iPod®/iPhone® syncing dock. Phobos is as impressive externally as it is internally, offering Refined Aesthetics and an innovative design. Its sleek black gloss finish and hidden cable management makes Phobos look at home in the living room, next to a flat panel TV and high end audio components. BFG Tech’s ground breaking touch panel LCD with performance control further sets Phobos apart from every other system in its class. The panel provides users with a System Status Overview—a real time snapshot of the processor, memory, network, and storage data. Phobos owners can also make real-time performance adjustments based on desired use (Auto/Quiet/Max), monitor the capacity and health of internal storage devices, display and control audio and video files, and more. ‘PHOBOS ELITE’ STANDARD CONFIGURATION* • Upcoming BFG NVIDIA® GeForce GTX 295 Graphics Cards (x2 for Quad SLI®) • BFG NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 for Dedicated PhysX™ Processing • Intel® Core i7 965 Extreme Edition 3.2GHz Processor • CoolIt® Contained Liquid Cooling Solution (GPU&CPU) • MSI® Eclipse SLI Intel® X58-based Motherboard • Patriot® 6GB PC3-12800 1600MHz DDR3 Memory • 4x Western Digital® VelociRaptor 300GB Hard Drives • Slot Loading Blu-ray® Super Multi Optical Drive • BFG LS-1200 1200W High Efficiency Power Supply • Auzentech X-Fi Prelude 7.1 Sound Card • Integrated iPhone®/iPod® syncing dock • Unique 8” Interactive Touch Panel LCD • In-Home Set Up Included with Every Phobos Purchase _____________ Source: Emailed Press Release. |

Re: BFG Tech Launches first full system
Sounds like a £1600-1900 machine.
Good luck to them, they have some fine products.
