Hello,

I just built me a new system after several years with my old system and
Nascar Racing runs like a scalded dog on this bad boy. I can barely
hold on to the damn joystick, it likes to jump right outta my hand.
This is ONE HELL'ava game box.

Intel845WN Motherboard w/Sound & Lan
Intel Pentium 4, 1.8 Ghz CPU Retail Box
1 Gig PC-133 SDRAM (Yes, ONE GIG of SDRAM)
60 Gig IBM Deskstar GXP 7200 RPM Hard Drive (Ultra DMA 100)
Nvidia GE Force 2 TI w/64MB DDR (Super Fast) RAM - 4X AGP
HP 24X CD R/RW Burner
Teac 12X DVD
Windows XP Home Edition
Antec Mid Tower Case w 400 Wt Power Supply
3 Cooling Fans, one front, one rear, and one blowing over the hard
drive. The case has a spot for all these fans. Plus the P/S fan and CPU
fan, this thing sounds like a jet engine at idle.

I LOVE this thing....

send me a check for $1700 plus $90 for shipping and I'll build the box
and ship it to you. Seriously, I will...

Aloha

So that explains why Harvick acts like a Skaarj Warrior.

I have a terrible memory. In fact my memory's so bad I can't remember how
long it's been since I've forgotten anything.

I don't mean to brag, but I built a faster system for less....
The Asus MB's are awesome...
PC-133 SDRAM is kinda slow these days...
Of course faster CPUs are available, and for not much more...
16x DVD
etc...

Built one for my cousin for around $1500.

I can do better. :-) Using the same Antec case and PS though. I'll unlock a
T-Bird 1.33ghz cpu and OC to 1.46ghz for you. OC'ing comes free of charge.

I priced out a system for a net friend of mine for about a $1000 for the box
at newegg.

AMD 1800XP
ASUS MoBo Via 333 chipset
512 PC2700
ATI 8500
SB Audigy sound card
CDR
80 gig hard drive.

ROFL Andre !

-John

p.s. I built one just slightly less than his, for under a grand :)

Nice PC and all, but why would you put PC-133 and a GF2 in a 1.8 GHz PC? If
you're going high-end, why not DDR RAM and at least a GF3?

Congrats !

P4 w/SDRAM? GF2? IBM GXP drive?

Yeah, right - run away people!

Too bad it's attached to your head.
