Hey Kelvrick, can you do me a huge favor and add in the prices per item in your post...pleasssssse. I wanna use your post as a reference mark cause i'm doing a lot of research and price comparison. Thanks a lot.
I'm gonna stick with the Geforce 3 TI 200. I'm planning to buy it from Comp-U-Plus. It's $140 after shipping.
And since everyone suggests the Epox 8KHA+ I'm thinking of buying it from Mwave for 105.67 after shipping.
IBM Deskstar 60 gig 7200 rpm at Esystor for $112.00 after shipping.
If any of the places i'm planning to buy from are expensive or crappy, please let me know. thanks again. >>
Ehh. I don't wanna go do all that stuff again, but ok. I can't think of anything to write on my essay right now. But for the things you said you're going to buy, I think you might as well get the epox from newegg. Its cheaper there.
EDIT: The burner was out of stock so I just added another burner of comparable price. 2 bucks cheaper if my memory serves me right.
I wouldn't recommend getting that IBM either. Get a seagate or maxtor 60gig from newegg.com. I'm currently running on the Epox 8kha+ and its a great board, but I have to warn you. It is not compatible with Geforce 4's. These video cards just won't fit on it. I would think you should get the Epox 8KHAL instead. It still uses the via 266a chipset, but has no overclocking options and 1 less PCI slot. You save like 20 bucks though.

There is pretty much everything that you'll need. When comparison shopping, make sure you get the after shipping prices, and possibly tax. Also, JonnyDuke might have some nice prices, but you have to be willing to take the risk from the cheap cheap sellers. I would check out
www.resellerratings.com and then the anantech resellerratings too. You don't wanna be screwed out of your money.
EDIT: The burner was out of stock, so I added another one of comparable value. 2 bucks cheaper if my memory serves me right.
