I have a 160 GIG IDE, and DVD/CD I'm transfering to this rig. The rest of my old 1.8 P4 Geforce 3 64 rig is a gift for my father in law

Nice.

Not bad... I personally would have gone with socket 939, but this is still a very nice system.

 

[Edward Lee]

yea i was considering a socket 939 but the price/performance difference was negligable. Plus by the time I upgrade from this rig in the future both the 754 and 939 should be just as outdated by then.
