    AthlonXP-M 2600+ (2.13ghz @ 2.45ghz, 1.725v)
    Shuttle AN35N Ultra V 1.1 (nForce 2 Ultra @175FSB)
    Generic 2 sticks of 512MB PC2700 ram(@ 175mhz, and whatever my motherboard considers aggressive settings for my ram at that speed...which aren't very aggressive at all, like 8-5-5-5 or something)
    Radeon 9700 pro @ 334/334
    Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS
    Built in LAN
    Maxtor 80GB ATA 133 7200RPM harddrive
    Noname crappy DVD drive
    Creative 8432 CDRW drive
    A Firewire card
    An A: drive ripped out of an old 286, it's even got an ugly green light like old computers used to use(oh, so commodore 64 lookish!)
    Volcano 12 + fan controller
    2 back of case fans, 1 pci slot fan(right under the video card...it even almost lines up with the radeon fan!)
    Achieve 550watt power supply, 25 amps on the 12 volt line
    A Cornerstone workstation monitor, Color 50/115sf, 1600x1200res@120hz(that's what it can accomplish in windows, it can actually go higher), warnings about not standing behind or to the sides because of radiation, 21", got it for $100, picture quality isn't as sharp as I'd like, it's rather old, like 10 years I think. Refresh rate seems to vary randomly with the resolution, as some lower resolutions it can only do 100hz.(which is what I keep it set on anyhow)

    And my second computer
    AthlonXP 2200+(1.8 ghz I believe)
    Biostar M7VIF (Via KT333 @ 133 fsb, most aggressive memory timings possible on the board though)
    4 sticks of generic pc2100 totalling either 640MB or 720MB
    PNY Geforce 3 TI 200(@ 230/460....err 230 but it reads as 460 cause it's ddr, stupid thing)
    Sound Blaster 128
    I think a dlink ethernet card
    Maxtor 20GB ATA100 5400RPM
    Cendyne 48x24x48 cdrw
    Compaq 185 watt power supply
    A slightly better A: drive
    CTX Color monitor, I forget the model, max res of 1280x1024 at 75hz, maz refresh rate of 85hz. 17", picture is much sharper than my cornerstone, but it doesn't do shades of colors as well(blacks and grays really annoy me on it, grays are too dark so I have to turn brightness up but then blacks are too bright), it may only be sharper because it's a smaller monitor, but I know the jaggies from my gamecube games are much less noticable on it.(it could also have better image quality on gamecube games because I use a vga convertor, and this monitor is actually a vga, while my cornerstone is d-terminal or something but I got a dterminal to vga cable for it)

    Spare parts I have, 2 broken athlon chips, one an athlon xp 2600+(thoroughbred) that is visibly smashed, another a 2000+ palonimo that I'm not sure what it wrong with it, but I assume it to be dead, that or the motherboard I used it in is dead. A stock amd sub 2000+ rating cooler.
    An Asus A7V333 motherboard(via kt333), may or may not be dead(I don't think it is, but it could be), I know the A: drive connector in it doesn't work for whatever reason.

    Wow, an old thread surfaces again :)

    I almost forgot what upgrades I've made to my computers...

    This computer now have a P4 2.8GHz, a GeForce 6800 Ultra, a 160GB HDD replacing a 80GB one, and EMU-1212M sound card replacing the DAL CardDeluxe.
    [EDIT] I forgot that I also added another 512MB RAM for this computer.

    Basically no change. A 37GB HDD (from "TURTLE") is added.

    Many components of this computer went to "SNAIL." Now it has an Intel Celeron D 335 (2.8GHz), an i865G motherboard, 512MB DDR SDRAM, and the Radeon 9700 retired from "HOTBALL". The CD-RW is also moved to "SNAIL."

    The 37GB HDD went to "STAMINA", replaced by a 160GB HDD.

    The motherboard of this computer is broken. Now it is replaced by things from "TURTLE," including the CPU (P3 1.2GHz), the MB (i815EP), RAM, and the Liteon CD-RW drive.

    I have built another computer with my P4 2.26GHz using a Shuttle SS51G. It has 256MB RAM and a 80GB HDD. It serves as a headless server running my web site (www.kimicat.com).
