At stock - it's alright
Overclocked - almost a beast, except for the video card.

any links to a 9700 for less than $300 would be madly apreciated. I am going to have a single monitor on this computer and NewEgg has the all-in-wonder. i woulndn't think that it would have hindered performance but i really don't need the inputs.

Wow, Best Buy has a 9800 non-pro for under $300.

I don't have the exact #'s handy, but I know that the 9800 is 10-15% faster than the 9700 under some conditions. It's not a lot faster, but if you can get it for cheaper why not?

i don't care about your computer!

7/10. Replace that Barton 2500 with 2 Barton MP 2800s and the DFI NFII with an MSI K7D Master-L and you'll get 9/10. Go with Xeons or Opterons and get 10/10.

I just glanced at Techspot.com's pricegrabber section. I saw Radeon 9800 - $269 and thought WTF? Lucky for you .

Save some money by ditching the stupidly overpriced MB and Ram and upgrade your video card. What are you using for HD's?
