Built this for myself in my old Enlight 7237 case:
AMD XP64 x2 5200+ w/heatsink fan (CPU in the box)
Asus M2N-E SLE Deluxe motherboard
XFX 7900 GS - 256 meg video card
ThermalTake Toughpower 650 watt modular PSU
NEC MultiSync 90GX2 19 inch monitor.
Right now - 1 gig of borrowed DDR2400 ram. Original Corsair ram I bought from NewEgg (2 gig kit and now offered even cheaper than I got it at) was bad - read the reviews - there are issues with this ram. I will be replacing the DDR2 400 with locally bought AMP-X, 2x1 gig DDR2 800 kit for $149.99 regular price (Corsair has a rebate) and lifetime warranty.
