that makes the total $1547

 

[911paramedic]

Let me guess, the $10 off a $50 purchase at Amazon from Egghead?

512mb PC2700 Kingmax DDR (256mb x2) -- $87x2= $174
MSI GeForce 3 Ti200 card -- $142 (better yet, $120 @ fryz if there's one nearby)
Evercase 4252 and PSU -- $42
Seagate Barracuda IV 40gb -- $78
SB Audigy OEM -- $61
keyboard/mouse of choice -- $20
Liteon 24x burner -- $85

Alpha 8045 heatsink -- $30 (SVCompucycle.com)....better yet, Thermalwright AX7 heatsink (much better performance $30 @ KDComputers)
4x Panaflo L1A fans -- $10 (BGMicro.com) (one for PSU, one for CPU, and two for case cooling! 21dB fans )
Klipsch Promedia 2.1 -- $180 THese sound SOOO much better than most cheapo 4.1 and 5.1 speakers. Not regrettable

Total: $1048, with room for shipping. If you get the Ti200 from Fryz, you'll have your comp for $1026. Oh btw, to get Klipsch Promedia 4.1 speakers for the $1400 setup, go to Axiontech where they have them for $298

 

[Ionizer86]

Looking good

Um....not quite.....that 6Cu+ will cause earache within five minutes!! The 6Cu is enough to cause an earache. You won't regret a system with Panaflo L1A fans and a Seagate BArracuda IV.
