Would anyone actually buy this, and would it be useful in real world use?

I was browsing ebay and came along this

 

http://www.ebay.com/itm/2013-Best-Gaming-PC-SLINKY-SUPERCOMPUTER-Nvidia-GeForce-GTX-TITAN-Quad-SLI-/300905943892?pt=Desktop_PCs&hash=item460f645354

 

At first I was like O DAYUM ITS SO BEAUTIFUL!

 

But then I looked at the specs some more.

 

How practical is this system? Besides the fact thats its super ugly, 4 titans in SLI seems a little overkill lol

 eGPU Setup: Macbook Pro 13" 16GB DDR3 RAM, 512GB SSD, i5 3210M, GTX 980 eGPU

Does not matter how over priced this may be or how ridiculous, he apparently sold some...  I wonder how much he made

Four pumps? When I build a system, I like the parts to create less heat than the water cooling components.

If I were crazy enough (and rich enough) I'd buy a boxx... but I enjoy the selection process and building.

For gaming, definitely overkill. Rendering... Yeah, if I had the money I'd buy 4 titans and put them in a case that doesn't look like a gay fairy vomited in a box.

I always guarantee that no more than 50% of what I say is useful.
