Your Machine Specs

I'm going to brag about my system now that I have it set up -D

-1GB DDR2 Memory
-500W PSU
-ATI Radeon X1600 512mb Graphics Card
-Cooler Master Case

Everything is running smooth as butter! This machine installed Win XP Pro in under 8 minutes!

The CPU is running at 120F which is pretty cool I'd imagine. Or I hope so. )

Anyway, I'm going to test it out with some photoshop and whatnot tomorrow!

I think I might start to build a brand new computer in about 3 or 4 months, and take about 4 months to do it, ahaha...

XP pro install right now, vista ultimate in the mail.

no use of IDE, every component is natively sata, including opticals.

installed windows xp in less than 7 minutes.

Nice setup, JOSHBOX. I'm envious of that. As for my setup, it's only a few months old but will see an upgrade within 6-8 months to Conroe, DDR2, and a better video card to feed the new monitor I got. Here's the specs

ASUS A8N SLI-32 Deluxe Motherboard
AMD X2 4200+
2GB PC4000 OCZ Gold 3-3-3-8 @ 246mhz
300GB Maxtor SATA 7200RPM (Need to get a Raptor, in due time)
GeForce 7600 GS 512mb DDR2 (Upgrade, soon)
Dell 22'' E228WFP LCD

I was going to get the 24'' but couldn't justify the $300 price difference for an S-PVA or IPS panel, cause I'm not picky - this one looks fantastic with games, and was only $300, so. Looks nice setup in dual screen sometimes with media with my 32'' LCD. I need to get this all setup nicely with my consoles/computer - it would be pretty awesome.

I figured dmorris would have a pimpin' setup, too.. and I was so right.

My desktop is lagging behind, but still does ok for me

It's old. It's mostly an upgraded DELL over many years of upgrades. P But hey...I'm playing Counter Strike Source and F.E.A.R. at MAX settings and highest resolution. So it's not that bad. D

It used to be like, 40 GB hard drive, 256 MB RAM, Geforce MX 440 (64 MB card), then I upped it to an extra 200 GB hard drive, BFG Geforce FX 5500 OC, and to 768 MB RAM, and then the new video card + monitor. All over a 5 year period. P

Once I get out of college I'll build the ultimate gaming rig. ;)
