I'm going to be upgrading to some serious hardware this summer...but for now, my 2 year old system is still chugging along:

Dual Athon MP 2800+'s (I was dual core before dual core was cool...:)
2 Gigs of PC2100 Registered DIMMs
About 1TB of disk space
Dual Dell 2001FPs
GeForce 6800 GT

Over the course of a couple of years, I put about $4000 into this system starting in maybe 2003 when the 2800+ was the fastest thing out there...

Looking to upgrade to whatever is badass this summer with a budget of a few grand...I can't wait to build it...:)

45C for a Prescott? I thought those things were hot as hell; what cooling are you using?

So 45 degrees for a prescot is good...i was getting worried cause i thought 45 was a bit high.

i only got 2 rear 80mm fans sucking and another one on the side..sucking as well.

The colonel's right on this one.

Also, make no mistake about it - the one i have is a monster too. I actually have to take off my heatsink if I want to change out my RAM.

I had an issue with that a while ago, actually. I originally got some blingy RAM that was too tall and had to sell it.

Cools great though. :D
