Finally Ordered the Parts for My New System - Tell Me What You Think!

[novon]

OMEGA - Ordered and Soon To Be Built

Here is what I ordered:

AMD Athlon XP 1600+ Retail - NewEgg.com
Soyo Dragon Plus KT266A - NewEgg.com
Antech 1030 Black Mid Tower + 2 Extra Case Fans and 340w Enermex AMD Approved PS - NewEgg.com
512 MB of Crucial DDR PC2100 - Crucial.com w\ Anandtech discount
Western Digital WD400BB 80.0 GB @ 7200 RPMS (Two 40gig in RAID 0) - Dell Home 10% + $20 off
ATI Radeon 8500 Retail w\ DVI - Dell Home 10% + $20 off
Logitech Z560 4.1 Surround Sound System - Dell Home 10% + $20 off

Total came to just under a grand.

It took a few weeks to do research to get all the right parts - Hopefully, there will be no let downs, but I'll keep you guys posted.

This system should keep up with Ghost Recon or FS 2002 Pro which were chocking on my PIII 1Ghz\Geforce2

Great computer, have fun!

Nice looking system bro. Now you just need a good sound card and a set of speakers and you'll be set.

If you're willing to spend even more money, BestBuy has a 120gb WD drive for $300 this week, and you get a free 19" toshiba TV (looks like a fairly decent model too).

Nice, very nice!

quite a system for < 1000$

would have to recommend a sound card though, unless your using one from another system

i wouldn't have gotten the soyo, it's not compatible with the Alpha PAL8045.


besides that... totally badass man
