This is for all you that were undecided on components, as I was, on building my new system. I bought the following (most from Newegg)
Asus- P4s533
P4 1.6a @ 2.133ghz
512 mb True pc2700 Samsung RAM
Ti4200 mb Gainward 64mb
Maxtor 40 gig w/ fluid bearings
Logitech z560 speakers
Turtle Beach sound card
Sony G400 19" monitor
XP home
Lite on DVD and 32 x burner
Black Chieftec case
I looked over parts for 3-4 months before saving enough $ to buy the above parts. Put it togather on Friday night and could not be happier. OC to 2ghz+ and scores above 11,000 on PC mark. I have nad no problems with any of these parts and I give many of you credit for helping me decide on good reliable components. I have tried it all out and am thrilled. Burn CD's in 3-5 minutes and smokes through installs. Thanks all for the technical advice and advice on parts as well.
