Although the market for them is relatively small, we love to check out elaborate, no-holds-barred gaming PCs from time to time--you know, the kind of system that costs about the same amount as a serviceable used car. As fun as it is to check out an ultra high-end gaming rig, we also do it to gauge the user experience and to see just how much better it is (or isn't) versus a mainstream PC. But how great is the experience, really? The answer needs to be darn near perfection, because - let's face it - a midrange gaming desktop is going to give you a pretty solid gaming experience (and look good doing it) without inflicting nearly the same damage to your wallet. Though the phrase "experience" has been driven to an industry cliché by PR types, it's an apt description of what you're looking for when you size up a top shelf, custom rig. It should be the computer you remember when you're geeking out with your buddies years from now. With its $6k price tag, Maingear's EPIC RUSH series is meant to do just that...
