So this is something I put together a little while ago, could you look at it and tell me if there is any interest and if the price is any good or what I should change?Motherboard: Asus P4S800, socket 478, chipset SiS 648FX, FSB 800mhz...Processor: Intel P4 2.6Ghz, socket 478, Hyp. threading, 800mhz FSBMemory: 1Gb GEIL DDR400 PC-3200 RAMHard Drive: WD 180GB 7200rpmVideo Card: Asus Geforce FX 5600 128MB DDRSound Card: Creative Labs Sound Blaster Live!CDROM: ASUS 52xCDRW: ASUS 52x24x52Floppy: Mitsumi 1.44MB 3.5 inchFan: Thermaltake SMART CASE FAN IICase: Thermaltake Xaser III V1420D Chassis, 12-Bay, ( BLUE ), ATX Super Tower.

Abit IC-7 comes to mind.>Processor: Intel P4 2.6Ghz, socket 478, Hyp. threading,>800mhz FSBNot a bad choice on the CPU. Personally I would have saved some cash and went w the 2.4. Better OC'er if wanted and cheaper.>Memory: 1Gb GEIL DDR400 PC-3200 RAMPersonally I prefer Corsair or my favorite right now OCZ. A gig is a little over the top in most instances but at the price it's good to have.>Hard Drive: WD 180GB 7200rpm8 Meg cache version right :)>Video Card: Asus Geforce FX 5600 128MB DDRUnless it's the 400Mhz core second revision BAD choice. 9500 Pro while you still can. Second choice, new 5600Ultra>Sound Card: Creative Labs Sound Blaster Live!Which version. If your talking Live value, way to outdated. Nothing less than Turtle beach 6.1 or Audigy II>CDROM: ASUS 52x>CDRW: ASUS 52x24x52No need for both a CD-RW and a CD-ROM. Lite-on 48x24x48x16 CD-RW/ROM/DVD-ROM Combo>Floppy: Mitsumi 1.44MB 3.5 inch>Fan: Thermaltake SMART CASE FAN IIFan for what CPU?? No need. STock intel good to 3+ Ghz Overclocks.>Case: Thermaltake Xaser III V1420D Chassis, 12-Bay, (>BLUE ), ATX Super Tower. Aluminum Front Panel and 1.0mm SECC>Japan Steel Body. LARGE SIDE WINDOW.

To me there are much better cases for less money out there.>>Price: about $1,300>>Tell me what you think, any suggestions, any interest,>anything at all!:D>>Thanks!:DI'll get back to you with one you let me know what you think.Bobby
August 4, 200322 yr How about something like this for around $1450. For $150 more I assemble, burn in and benchmark systems like this for people.Cooler Master Model# ATC-201-SX / ATC-201C-SX2(Silver/Brown) All Aluminum Mid-Tower PC Case Lite On 48x24x48x16 CDROM/CDRW/DVD Combo Drive LTC-48161H - OEM MITSUMI D359M3 FDD 1.44MB 3.5INCH 2 WD WESTERN DIGITAL "SPECIAL EDITION" 120GB 7200RPM EIDE HARD DRIVE MODEL # WD1200JB in RAID 0.OCZ Dual Channel Optimized DDR PC-3200 High Performance. The Ultimate High End Memory 512MBX2 Model# OCZ4001024ELDC ASUS Motherboard for Intel Pentium 4 / Celeron Processors, 800Mhz FSB Model# P4P800 DeluxeAntec 430W Power Supply TRUE430 Intel Pentium 4 / 2.8CGHz 512k socket 478 Hyper Threading Technology 800 MHz FSB Turtle Beach Voyetra Santa Cruz 6-Speaker DSP Audio Accelerator Leadtek NV34 Geforce FX5600 ULTRA NV31 8XAGP 128MB VGA, DVI & TV-Out/VIVO. Or a Radeon 9500Pro OC, your choice.With this you get a faster CPU, Better sound and video card, The option to run 10/100 or 1000 LAN, better MB and memory, Larger HD running in a RAID 0 configuration, all aluminum High Quality case w one of the best Power Supplies you can buy.Not bad for $1450.00 :)Now my price doesn't include a Monitor, keyboard or mouse. I offer the above machine w a:Viewsonic P90F 19" Perfect Flat CRT Monitor Logitech MX700 Cordless Optical Mouse MICROSOFT NATURAL PS2 KEYBOARD ELITELogitech Z-680 5.1 Metallic Silver Speaker 500Watt THX Certified with Dolby Digital Windows XP HomeOptimized for the best match of Image quality and framerates. Through me this system would run you around $2500 delivered to your door.Now some people will say that's a lot and they can do better. They are right. I give the option of a hand built, custom wired, OC'ed system at a reasonable rate.For $30 you can add a side door fan w Laser cut grill. For $75 I'll paint it any standard color in hand rubbed lacquer.It's not easy configuring systems but your choices are not bad. You can just do a lot better for just a little more money.Bobby
