I just set up my new computer. I thought I would share some pics with you guys! 😀

Specs: (put together for under $1,200)
-not including monitor

Kinwin Aluminum Case w/ 3 windows
AMD 2000XP
Gigabyte KT400
420 Watt Enermax PS
512 mb ddr (4200) -1 stick.
100 gig hd (8 mb cache)
40 gig hd
128 mb. Geforce 4 4200
Audigy card
TDK 48x24x48
Samsung 16x 48x dvd
Dell 1900FP 19" LCD monitor
-2 games shown: Madden 2003 and GTA 3.

Only regret: I should have went w/ the Nforce 2. I'll probably switch mid summer, as this setup should last me a bit. And I'll get a new video card, 200 gig hd and another 512 mb. (400) stick of ram.

Yea. I should have went w/ the 2600 but I made the mistake by not doing it. And as I stated before I should have went with the Nforce 2 board, but I didn't. This was actually the first computer that I've ever built. I'm happy with the results, but next time I'll do some more research.

The Case I got from Crazy PC.

Also I got the power supply and rounded cables from frozen cpu.

Both companies are awesome. No problems at all.

I was going to get a clrear acrylic case from Crazy-pc.
But it said "please be aware that acrylic cases may be subject to EMI and such should NOT be placed close to other electronic equipment."Does anyone know exactly what this means and what happens if I do place it close to other electronic equipment?
 
Sweet, I remember when I built my first system. When it actually POSTed, I was very happy! 😀

Nice system you put together.
 
That other speaker goes in the center, not on the right 😉. That's why they call it the "front" speaker 🙂
 
Electromagnetic Interference. Not generally an issue, I run my case with the sides removed frequently and have never experienced EMI.

How does that lcd react to Madden? Otherwise great looking system :beer:

Madden is awesome on my LCD monitor. The game looks so realistic, plus w/ the Logitec 5:1 the game sounds so realistic.

how is gaming on the lcd panel, is it hard on the eyes?


Not at all, and your talking to someone that had just sold a (1 year old) Sony trintron 19" CRT. The only problem Im having is that the monitor is in Analog, becauae I need to go digital. I'll do that soon though...

And you should see bf1942. The game looks very good. No ghosting, some trailing but it's kept to a minimum.
