    Finally, Computer back up and running w/new specs

    Old setup

    Amd xp 2400 (266)
    Soyo mobo off tiger
    gig of ram (2)(512/333/2700)
    40 gig WD drive
    30 gig generic drive
    12x8x4 samsung cdburner/dvdplayer
    generic 16x dvd rom
    mistumi 12x/16x cd rom ?
    SLOT loading 6x cd rom off of a compaq i found in the trash...ha
    zip drive/floppy
    Geforce mx 440 (64mb/ddr)

    NEW setup

    AMD 64 3000 (socket 754)
    Asus k8v se Deluxe mobo
    (1) Samsung 512mb (400/3200)
    (2) Ultra 512 (333/2700) <- off old setup
    80 gig WD drive
    40 gig WD drive <- off old setup
    30 gig generic drive <- off old setup
    52x48x52 cd burner off brand new emachine i found in the garbage
    16x dvd burner off same trashed emachine
    12x8x4 samsung cdburner/dvdplayer <- off old setup
    generic 16x dvd rom <- off old setup
    zip drive/floppy
    ATI RADEON 9600xt (256mb/ddr)

    Finally got everything running perfectly. Its nothing special but much better then what I had. As you can see I like having alot of drives because I HATE putting cds in back and forth. So I keep the most important ones in the drives at all times..heh

    If your wondering how I have so many drives, its called an IDE controller card...heh, cant live without one.

    I picked up the asus board/processor with HUGE aftermarket heatsink/graphic card for 200 flat. The emachine I had laying around and there was NOTHING wrong with it. Had a 3.06 ghz celeron with the 80 gig drive and 512 (3200) ram....I also got those two drives off the thing...Aparently someone cant tell which is broken...monitor or computer. SO they threw it out....and it still had the warrenty sticker on the back panel and a home edition cd key on it...score

        Yeah alot of people told me that but eh...only paid 200$ for the board/cpu/graphic card...and its MUCH better then what i had...ill upgrade next summer or something....to the 939 with an fx series cpu...ill also probably just upgrade the ram and graphic card by then to....then go SATA with the hard drives.... (still using ide, i know i know....)

                Yeah only ocasionally do I buy the BEST stuff the minute it comes out. Other then that I always wait first to see how the stuff works out.

                Sorry man but I dont sell ANYTHING computer wise....ive got a 10 foot by 10 foot storage container with climate control....LOADED with computer parts / monitors....I dont know why...I just have a erge to never throw anything out or sell anything.... Me and my friend always grab computers in the garbage every chance we get.....and hes driving an 06 300c ..... WE LOVE COMPUTERS.....and especially warcraft II and taco bell. oh yeah and slurpies

                We actually had a site up at one point selling and making custom computers...It was about 70% done before we scrapped the project since it was just going to take WAY to much time to update....Were actually about to re-do the entire computer lab at his college....thats over 10 computers....weve built 2 for them allready and one crazy ass dual opteron machine for the graphic artist there....imagine this....she GAVE US HER CREDIT CARD....and told us to go nuts.....omfg i died but this was back in like....03-04 though

                Ive got the money to upgrade my computer to the ultimate workstation but....I just dont need to...my computers doing MORE then I expect it to do and thats all I care about atm. Right now my moneys going into a new monitor and bedroom stuff...
