-550 aspire psu (have a 500 dual 12v rail antec smartpower chilling here waiting to go in)
-DFI Infinity mobo
-AMD 64 3200+ socket 939 stock 2.0
-XFX 256mb ddr3 6800GS 485/1100 stock
-2 x 512mb Mushkin Enhanced performance dual channel running 200mhz
-Seagate 7200rpm 160gb

Should I be disappointed with 4791 in 3dmark05?
 
That 3200+ is awesome just got one for my kid and man does it stay cool like 24*c Idle temps and 34*loads.I have three fans and stock cooling hook-up but still cools good.
Ohh yeah pretty nice setup.I dropped in 6800gs in SLi alos with the 3200+ also and man do those perform well.BTW what case did you get .
 
How much did it all cost in the end? and BTW, thats nice. similar to my build, except mine is socket 754, AGP, and i'm using a 6800GT.
 
i got some weird black aspire case with a window in the side.

And it cost about 700 or so. too lazy to look it up i'll do it later.
 
How did I do? My specs are below...
Mine cost about 1000$ with the speakers and the X-Fi (720 without.)
(That is 300$ right there: X-Fi platinum - 185$ Speakers - 135$)
 
Alright but could of done a little Cheaper and would of got a DFI so you could OC if you wanted too.Also would of got a 6800gt minimum but thats me.I dont think newegg sent you a sata HDD you just problay didnt know what you picked then again I could be wrong.
