If you’re going to spend upwards of $3,000 on a PC gaming rig, you’re probably expecting a monster machine that can take whatever you throw at it, spit it out, and then ask for more. And with perfectly good gaming machines available in the $1,500 range, you’d be right to expect something special for double the price!
iBuypower wanted to prove to us that their Gamer 942IL system was worth every bit of its $3,599 asking price, so they sent us a test unit to vigorously pummel with high resolution gaming benchmarks, as well as anything else that tickled our fancy.
If you’re looking to invest in something that will last a long time before reaching obsolescence; if you have money to burn and an ego to feed; or if you’re just plain curious about what the latest and greatest hardware can accomplish, read on!

Bear in mind a skilled OCer can achieve results fairly close to the Reactor at a fraction of the price; not possible with the iBuyPower which uses much more expensive components to achieve a similar result. Not too flattering if you think about it, but that's the power of the OC for you!
