In poland a couple of years ago I badly wanted some fast computer (I had one in that time but it was totally old). So I was working 8hours per day. Finally after some time I bought motherboard:) it was k7n2 delta-l from MSI company. It was very ok for that times but technology is growing some fast and after couple of months I needed something for enthusiast and it was Abit AN7 with Nforce 2 ultra 400 chipset. rest of components I was adding frequently in United States where I was working in construction in weekends and even in week after school. Finally my system is fast as hell, but now A64 systems are on top list so my main point is to get this stuff as soon as possible (hopefully Holidays). Overall with my current system I can plkay every game in resolution 1600:1200 with maximum details and AA and AF enabled. People are talking that monitors CRT are ugly but hell with them, they are not realising that no LCD will give me good refresh rate with high resolution and overall quality will be never near that good. So in summary, this machine is a big killer and probably dream of any gamer, but I'm a computer freak and I will jump into A64.
