I'm still saving up and collecting items to build a really decent box. Maybe after the first of the year. I have just done a few upgrades to my gaming rig (other than upgrading my fileserver from 80GB to 160GB RAID1 and from Win2k Pro to Win2k Server):
FozzieBear
Stock Dell Dimension 4400
WinXP Pro SP1 (last one I haven't put SP2 on yet)
Intel P4 1.6 GHz
ADDED 1GB Crucial PC3200 (upgrade from 512MB)
40GB IBM 7200rpm
20GB Western Digital 7200rpm
StarLogic 16x DVD-ROM
ADDED PNY NVIDIA GeForce 6800 GT 256MB (w00t!)
Compaq QVision 210 21" CRT
Nothin' special. It's still a little underpowered (processor-wise) but runs Far Cry, SW:BF and Doom3 well enough. When I build my new box I'll transfer the 6800 GT over to it, and put the Radeon 9000 Pro back in this one.
