I built this in Summer of 2005 minus the two WD RE2 and 500GB external drive which I added later.
I am hoping that this rig will last me a few more years before it is completely outdated and I feel the need to build a new rig that will last me another 3-5 years. I usually go all out and build a high-end machine when there is a huge leap in performance (over what I currently have) and next-gen specifications come out to try to future-proof my machine for as long as possible.

My previous 2001 built computer was the following (built around WinXP released):
Dual Processor AMD MP 1800+
1GB DDR266 ECC
Tyan K7 Thunder
80GB x2 in RAID0
60GB x2 in RAID0
160GB External
Kenwood 72x CD-ROM
4x DVD+/-RW
ATI Radeon 8500
Soundblaster Audigy Plat.
Klipsch 5.1 Surround
Sony GDM-F520
WinXP


OH SHI......

Nobody I know buys prepackaged units anymore. It's just so easy and relatively inexpensive to build and/or upgrade your own. I'll never buy a premade.

Say that to the milions of Dell customers.

Although, At my locale mall, I got to play around with Dell's top of the line Gaming rig with Vista Ultiment installed on it... Damn man... Half life 2 at 1920x1400 at absolute max quality. I almost literally creamed my pants.

I tend to like building my own systems cause it's just sort of a hobby. There are people who'd like to spend their time doing other things than researching parts and assembling, and Dell etc to offer that extra lawyer of support by fixing or replacing machines under warranty. Nothing wrong with either one, to each their own.
