    I built this one I'm using now.
    It's a p4 2.8ghz with 2gigs of ram and plenty of hd space.
    I think it cost me about 2k
    ..and I'm off.

              Oh yea the Radeon 9800's are about to drop big time in prices, since the new x800(r420) cards will be out soon.

                              I build my own. Been a hobby since PC's first came out.

                              Get this book by Scott Mueller. Upgrading And Repairing PC's.

                              Its fantastic and covers every single aspect of PC's. Its a big book with 1,574 pages, but you'll find info you never knew in there about all the components that go into making PC's work from A to Z.

                              Que Publishing has more info here.

                              This is a must have book if you love building your own PC's.

                                Does anyone build PCs and sell them online?

                                Hook me up with your online store.
