Get that crap out of here! It is no match for my PII400 machine and my state of the art TNT (original) video card!

I didn't know the 3.06 was at 800FSB? I thought it was 533? interesting...

Unfortunately Michael owns me with the sweet dual 19" flat panel monitor setup along with the 9800 Pro, but the other specs are not worthy of my house :)

Yeah right my system aint even close:

ElectroSeller peice-of-sh!t black premodded case/Sparkle 250W ATX PSU
AMD Athlon 850MHz (512KB Cache)
Shuttle AI61 Mobo
256MB PC133 (runs at PC100) SDRAM
ATI Radeon 9000 128MB DDR 4XAGP
WD800JB and Maxtor 60GB
SB Live! 5.1 PCI
Microsoft MN-130 10/100 PCI Ethernet Card
JVC 5.1 Surround Reciever/Pair of huge floor speakers (I think I have him beat ;)
Logitech Cordless Click! Plus mouse (step below MX700)
12X Samsung DVD-ROM (I painted the faceplate black though =)
52X I/O Magic/HiVal repackaged BTE5224 CD-RW (i painted the faceplate black)
Mitsumi Floppy (u guessed it - i painted the faceplate black)
HP Multifunction PS/2 Keyboard
HP Pavilion MX70 17'' CRT Flat Screen (1024x768@85Hz)
Windows XP Pro SP1A
Office 2003 Pro
HP Officejet 600 All-In-One (from Win95 days lol but it still works great)

I'm upgrading to the following VERY soon:
Antec SLK3700AMB/Antec SL350 (SmartPower 350W ATX PSU)
Intel P4 2.6C (hopefully 3.25GHz O/C - 250FSB haha whos smilin' now Mr Dell?) with HT
Abit IS7 Mobo (Intel 865PE chipset)
512MB PC3700 (200MHz/DDR400) Kingston DDR-RAM
Everything else stays the same (except no SB live or MS ethernet cause im using onboard sound/network)

So my new system is much closer to competing, but since mine is a custom built and his is a dell...hehe it might be faster (nahh hes got 2GB ram and SATA hdds). I'm prolly gonna get a raptor 10K SATA HDD though.

2600+
8RDA+
TBSC
R9100
512 PC2700

I've got a dually, so if we're talking playing BF1942 and running Bryce 5, I can kill his system.
2GB Dual Channel DDR400 Memory
ATI 128MB Radeon 9800 Pro Graphics
Sadly, I can't touch those.
Dual 120GB SATA Hard Drives
I've got a 10K SCSI drive, but much less storage.
Audigy 2 Audio Card
Logitech Z-680 5.1 Speakers
Mine isn't as good, but I don't care about sound power.
4X DVD+RW/+R Optical Drive
No need
Dual 19 inch DellUltraSharpTM Digital Flat Panel Display
Single 19" CRT

Edit: Oh, and I could fit four of his systems in my case. I'm tempted to run out and buy 13 more hard drives to fill up my case. :D

YES. only because i know people don't need that type of computer to send emails and write messages to the company.

Don't think he does media encoding or anything that needs that type of rig.

Thanks. :)

Every time I read it I see more misspellings and stuff, but I'm too lazy to fix it.

I wanted one that I could keep everything in. My other case was cramped with my dually, and this way cooling isn't an issue. I couldn't close my other case or it would over heat.
