Intel P4 3.0ghz overclocked to 3.6ghz 1g PC3800 DDR over clocked-PC4200 4 40G SSCI-2 80G SATA Hard Drives (SSCI are in a raid server) Radeon 9250se 128mb soon to be Radeon 9800 512mb CD-RW DVD-RW Dual Layer Burner Linux shiny lights leds lexan aluminum ect..... price: $500 :) Additional Comment: i must add DONT BUY COMPUTER PARTS FROM DEPARTMENT STORES!!!! reason: YOU ALMOST PAY DOUBLE ON WHAT ITS REALLY GOIN FOR it dont hurt to shop around. i suggest www.newegg.com www.geeks.com www.xoxide.com www.pricewatch.com www.tigerdirect.com you will find good deals on name brand parts i kno i order my computer business parts off line and i save shit loads. Additional Comment: another thing what ever you do do not buy DELLS! or GATEWAY! their a pain in the ass and parts are expensive their like disposable cameras cheap but you have to buy them like crazy so get a custom computer like going from disposable camera to digital lasts longer worth the extra money |

DUDES.. my new power mac just got here today and its SHWEEETTTT. i dont think it can be touched. if one wanted to and had the cash it can be upgraded with 16 g ram. dont think ill ever be doin that but just knowing i can is pretty cool. i was rendering with my new lightwave program, runing photoshop with a 750 mb file on board, i had i tunes running in radio, limwire dowloading stuff, and playing battlefield 2 all at the same time and it didnt bog a bit. all i need now is to get a second lcd screen and im golden .. for a long time. i want to get the 30 inch screen mac puts out but its like 3k for it.. i think that can wait. lol this thing is sooooo awsome. sorry i said that already but im stoked beyond stoked.  |

What's the point of have 10k RPM hard drives? @Razmeth: I was looking at that case when I was building my computer but decided against it. I like it though, although you have way too many LEDs. |

........... 2.8Ghz P4 Gigabyte mother board 256mb 9200 ATI radeon inboard soundcard.. 40$ DVD-rw.. 8 year old 17gb Hardrive oh... + my processor isn't working right, so it runs at 1600mhz, great. I'm pissed now... someone should PM me on how to make a 2.8Ghz P4 Mobile work to its maximum compassity in a pc. I just got this computer in december, and it's not worth a shit. Seeing other peoples computers that are nice... pisses me off. but I do have a cool alien-ware-wannabe case. |
