Nice rig. I like the athlons they are pretty sweet. Nice.
How much did it set you back?
$800 USD after rebates. I already had the video and sound card in my other computer so I'll just pull them out and install tonight. Not a bad deal at all... not to mention they gave me a free printer too... (which I didn't need.)
nice.
Thats £415, not a bad price. Not an amazingly good one but not bad.
Flat Panels are the best ... ive got a 19" and will never get another one of those space hogs ever again.Quote:

Sweet system & deal....to add a little performance.....take it up to Gig of Ram (2x 512mb).
You think a gig of RAM would make that much of a difference...
...for the money I find Ram is more of the more cost effective performace enhancers (Pun intended....lol)
ha ha... viagra for your computer... ha ha...
Where is the cheapest place to get RAM these days..
as long as u dont have RAMBUS memory, you can get it here for a good price:

Just ordered another 512... so I'll have a gig of RAM!!!!!!
This system is fast!
