The key is putting it together yourself and not going through some vendor. I`m too lazy to replace the motherboard just for the next step up so this is it for a while.

heh...that'd be a jawdropping-effect of an upgrade for me, and with no job its a bit harder to gather the money >.<

Core components like the processors, mobo, PSUs, hard drives and video cards are the same because there are are limited companies that make them. Ram, drives, cooling parts have different makers here. I recently upgraded my ram due to an overclocking issue (my fault).

I built my computer in Canada before coming over here with it (What a heavy beast it was). These are my stock specs.

Processor: CoreQuad Extreme 3.00Ghz (This is a Yorkfield chip)
Mobo: Asus Maximus Formula (comes with a quite decent sound card)
Video: 2x 9800 GX2 1GB(ea.)
Ram: 8GBs DDR-1066 FireStix (Japanese brand, runs quite well)
HD: 1.9TB (1x400GB, 1x500GB, 1x1TB
PSU: 1000w Antec

When I go hardcore with illustrator this build has no problems no matter how complex or large my file is. Do you overclock Ryuk999?

I've OC'd a bit over the past 2 years or so, never on my machine though, mine cant handle like, even minor overclocking.

unfortunately i don't overclock, but i would love to learn or get any knowledge you know on that topic
the 9800GX2, how is that different from some graphics card in the GTX 200 series (260, 275, 280, 295)? cause i herd its a pretty good graphics card, and you got a Sli

Wacom is also a Japanese company...?

Ram: 8GBs DDR-1066 FireStix (Japanese brand, runs quite well)

FireStix... Just a random fact out of the blue. Of the CFD products made inside of Japan, 95% of the workers making them are women over 65. A lot of their stuff is imported, repackaged, and sold through CFD or Buffalo - which are both essentially the same company... Melco. Which has it`s headquarters within walking distance of where my husband and I lived when we got married, and which is the greatest ever place for short term high paying temporary work!

I've been using a gaming computer for 2 years now, and not sure whether I should take it to Japan or just get a cheaper one for my studies.

Intel Core i7 940 Processor
12GB DDR3 System Memory
EVGA X58 SLI Motherboard
NVIDIA GTX 295 2GBx3 Video Card
1200W P Power & Cooling Dual/Triple/Quad SLI Compatible
1TB Western Digital HDD
Stage 3: Specialized Frostbite Separate Dual Loop system with 3 video cards

I'm probably going to give this one to a good friend before I leave and just buy a decent computer, an art tablet, and a nice Japanese cellphone when I get to Japan to make up for it.
