Well the last time I completely pieced together a desktop was back in 2000. So I of course had to go all out. Seeig as how my laptop made it through a year in the desert I figure it's just about time to retire it. Here's what I ended up getting:

Antec Performance One P190 Steel Case
Apevia 680W PSU
Abit AB9 QuadGT MB
Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4GHz CPU
Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro CPU Cooler
OCZ Gold 1GBx2 DDR2 1100 Mem
Western Digital 74GB 10,000RPM x2 in Striped RAID
Samsung 18X DVD Burner
Creative X-Fi Fatal1ty 7.1 Sound Card
EVGA Geforce 8800GTX 768MB DDR3 Video Card
BenQ 22" 5ms LCD Monitor

Ordered it yesterday (Sunday) should be here Tuesday or Wednesday, good ol newegg, only cost me $60 to get all that shipped!

Ordered from Newegg.com, I have a preferred account with them that lets me pay it off over 6 months free of interest. Been doing business with them for awhile now.

I'm running vista on my laptop simply because I got tired of messing with the XP discs I had. I'm actually pretty happy with it. Could be better, but could be worse.

Lol you mean should be better couldnt be worse! Vista is like the ps3 they are both total disasters and should be scratched and redesigned from the ground up.
