E For All 07: HP lets loose Blackbird 002 extreme gaming PC
In today’s E For All show, popular printer manufacturer Hewlett-Packard showed off its first extreme gaming PC called the Blackbird 002. This rig comes equipped with some of the best tools in the industry, which should make even the highest-end titles (e.g. Crysis) a piece of cake to run.
The brains of this extreme gaming PC is an Intel Core 2 Duo/Extreme/Extreme Quad-core (whichever you can afford) processor complemented by 4GB of DDR2 RAM and two Nvidia GeForce 8800 Ultra graphics cards in SLI-mode. It packs a proprietary 1.1 kilowatt power supply, a proprietary 3x PCI-E n680i motherboard, on-board Creative Xi-Fi Extreme 7.1 audio (Fatal1ty or Xtreme Gaming), and like all hobbyist PCs, it will cost you your body, your mind and your soul to own one. The beast is currently housed at HP’s E For All booth – number 2023.
If you were impressed with this monster from HP, there’s more still to come. VoodooPC was recently acquired by HP, and some of the gaming PC maker’s gear will be on display in later times during the inaugural E For All. We’ll keep you posted for more PC gaming news.
