You know what's better than a stock 3.33GHz Core i7-980X Extreme Edition (http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/11/intels-core-i7-980x-extreme-edition-gulftown-review-roundup/) CPU? Not much, but we're guessing that a 4.3GHz overclocked version of the same chip just might be. If you're thinking the same, and you've got $1,044 to spare in order to find out, upstart gaming rig maker Origin PC (http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/17/origin-launches-custom-gaming-rig-shop-starts-with-genesis-and/) has the means to get it to you. The outfit's Genesis desktop (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/21/origins-genesis-gaming-desktop-gets-reviewed-blisteringly-fast/) can now be ordered with Intel's freshest slab of silicon for $895, or you can snag an extra gigahertz for another $149. We know you'll make the right call.Origin PC offers overclocked 4.3GHz Core i7-980X Extreme Edition on Genesis desktop (http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/14/origin-pc-offers-overclocked-4-3ghz-core-i7-980x-extreme-edition/) originally appeared on Engadget (http://www.engadget.com) on Sun, 14 Mar 2010 02:01:00 EST.
