  1. I totally agree. Yes it's not for me, I'll be building to suit, but for some folks, it's perfect. A guy I know bought one last year, and I chuckled at what he was getting (actually overpriced I thought). Too much integrated stuff, ie; sound card, video card. Not much room for updates either.

  2. Ya, he needs the friggin money. I haven't gotten SP2 yet, it's out? I turned off the auto update in XP, it was driving me nuts. Does anyone know if you can turn off the firewall in SP2? That's kinda why I'm in no rush to get it. I was under the impression when I first heard about SP2 was that the firewall was automatic and online gamers would suffer. F that.

  3. where is the hard drive?? Memory is a little lacking 256mb is not enough for todays programs/system environment... other than that it is a great setup!! I love that case! I have used that one before for 2 other builds and it has turned out great!

    Me? Thanks! HD is there 160g SATA. And I got two RAM chips @256 each. Still half a gig is lacking I know. Soon to be 1.5 gig. Yes this case is awesome. Plenty of room for upgrades and I like all the blue lights.

    Actually...I not sure now looking back if Swimmer was talkin to me.... :oops:

  4. Thats BS I made mine for around 800 after I bought everything and I can play doom3 and farcry and any other game. The building of your own pc is a good Idea thats what I did if I would have bought mine already put together it would have been about 3' date='000 dollard. Hey check out my system here it is P4 2.8GHz 256mbs ram (not the best still saving to upgrade) and tv tuner with all the channels and a 8x DVDRW and a 16x DVD Drive and a see through case with a blus light on side and a ATI RADEON 9550 video card and a 40GIG hard drive with a 80GIG external and a floppy of course and XP HOME oh and 5.1 sorround sound card and yes I have the sorround sound speakers and a 4port router and High speed DSL internet and Best and wireless keyboard and mouse.I just bought the video card and the DVDRW I got for my BDAY. I also have alot of cool games like GTA 3 AND GTA VICE CITY and flight simulator 2004.I made this system myself and I would be happy to put on together for you. *DEL* I would also like peoples opion on my system thanks!!![/quote']

    That system don't sound like, what did you say, around 3 grand pre- assembled?? Please no offense meant. And if you paid 800 to build it, that sounds about right. I built mine for not much more, minus the monitor.

    Thanks! I heard they advertise up to 4m down. They only send 256 up, it's capped, which you know blows for any kind of hosting a busy online game. But for $35 it's not a bad hook-up. I can jump into most any room and pretty much rock. Especially UT04. Haven't tried D3 multy yet. It looked friggin lame. Single player kicked ass though.

  7. Hey guys/gals. Have mercy on the noob here. :roll: Tell me, is this speed good or not for cable modem? It seems fine, but need to compare and see if I need to do anything to get it any faster. I'm on insightBB in Louisville.
