| 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

Also i will say as everyone else did, GF2 and SDRAM in 1.8ghz is a bit of a
waste.... and in australia that is $3400 which is quite expensive
considering it has no monitor (computer gear is cheaper in the states even
when u convert the currency), and the last thing i want in my room is
something that is loud, my friend has one that you can hear with his bedroom
door closed and would drives that whole house insane after a few weeks on
non-stop running and restarting.

when I built the system, around xmas, the GF2 was the most affordable.  
I wanted a motherboard I could use my stock pile of SDRAM so I didn't
have to buy any new stuff. The difference between the two looks good on
paper, but in real life, it don't make much difference. Again, 1.8 at
the time I bought the components, offered the most bang for the buck.  
If I built one today, it would be a 2.0 with a GF3 or 4 for the same
price. But DDR Ram versus PC-133 doesn't show me anything with my eyes.

and this may not be the ultimate gamers machine either, but it is for
me.  I use my PC to run my business and just do a few games for fun now
and then, so to me, this IS the ultimate gamers machine, but its a
business machine first.....I guess I should have explained that...

and, Yes, I like using a Joy stick much better than the steering wheel
and peddles. And I like the joystick better than a yoke in flight
simulator, probably because I learned to fly with a stick and have
thousands of flight hours using a stick....

to each his own!!
