I am looking to buy a high end gaming system - state-of-the-art Desktop in Korea.

I will drop 3,500,000 WON or so on it. Anyone know if any good shops that can handle my needs and not the normal Yongsan guys who cant really deal with this kind of request?

You are creating a state of the art porn server, aren't you? If so, let me know Wink

I'm not sure if you are into Dells or not, but they have a korean web page.

http://www1.ap.dell.com/content/default.aspx?c=kr&l=ko&s=gen

Of course you'll need to be able to read Korean to navigate your way through it all.

I'm guessing that you work at a hogwon, so you should probably ask one of the Koreans there to help you out. There's lots of other web pages in Korea where you can build your own machine from a selection of thousands of parts and then have it delivered to your door. The pricing on the parts is very reasonable too.

I'm sure some one will post a good webpage for that sort of thing soon enough Smile

OOOOoooo.....

Think you are the first guy to drop 3.5 on a system? The Yongsan boys won't have a problem spending your money on a very worthy system.

The people who get ripped off at Yongsan are the ones who don't take enough responsibility for their purchasing. They go in there, cash in hand and a sketch on a napkin. Get smart, and the sheisters really back off with the bull.

Make a complete list, check it twice and head to a store in which there is a guy who looks like you can trust. Show him the list, ask him if he can do it for the prices (+/-) on your paper. If he says yes, do it. If no, then move to the next store.

This assumes you know what you want. If you haven't a clue (and the fact that this post isn't in the tech forum indicates this), then do some reading, go to Danawa and start putting together / pricing out a system, then head off to Yongsan. Or, pay me a small fee and I will come in and do it all for you.

3.5 is way too much, even for high end gaming desktop
3.5 could be split up like this -> 1.5mln - the system + 2 mln da** kick ass huge plazma monitor

You're joking, right?

2 GeForce 7950GX2 graphics cards will set you back 1.4 million. If you like SLI....and that is "top end".
