    Looking at the hardware, its going to be VERY expensive. Dual Ivy-E CPU standard with dual GPU, $3999 is probably the starting point I'd think.

    EDIT: Nice catch with the PSU James, it makes it even more incredible. Dual Ivy-E + Dual GPU has to be at least 650W.
    It is not Dual IB-E CPUs, just a single one. (E5-24xx or E5-16xx something I would imagine.).

    Ivy Bridge-E. Single socket, 4-DIMMs.
    2x AMD GPUs
    Back of one AMD GPU has the PCIe SSD on it.

    Ima, In my opinion workstations should be more upgradable than a laptop. I understand the whole "you sell your old laptop to fund your new one." I really do. But I don't think workstations should have a functional lifespan of a year or two.
