Well seeing as i've just finished building my "dream-machine" (took over 2 hours) I thought i'd ask you lot on what power your computer holds.

So.....list your spec.

AMD AthlonXP 2400+
MSI KT6 Delta FISR Motherboard
Coolermaster Aero 7 Lite
Seagate Barracuda 80GB Hard drive (7200rpm)
Connect3D Radeon 9600PRO
256mb of crucial Ram (PC2700) - Will be upgrading to more soon
"Zorro" silver case with 3 case fans
Phillips CDRW - Can't remember speed

I'll post a pic later. I'm just running it through Windows 98 setup - its formatting the drive at the mo.

XP2800
1Gb DDR400 but running insync with CPU so only running DDR333
Abit NF7-S
2 x 120 Gb ATA133 7200rpm 8mb Cache Maxtor
Hercules 128mb 9800 Pro
19" Samsung SyncMaster 957MB
16x Pioneer DVD
4x Sony DW-U10A
Thermaltake Xaser 3 case Black/Without window
Enermax 460 watt PSU

Pretty much runs any game at 1600x1200 with every setting. May try some overclocking to get the CPU running at 200mhz FSB so that the RAM is synced at its normal 400.

Not been fiddling with PC at all recently, get bored doing so much of it at work, so spec hasn't changed in quite a while:

XP T'bred 1700@2400+
512mb DDR
Thermalright SLK-947U + 92mm fan
120gb Seagate 7200.7 (8mb cache)
80gb Maxtor D740X (2mb cache)
Radeon 9800pro 128mb
Liteon 52x CDRW
Samsung 16x DVD
Antec SX1030B - Massacred case which was once nice and blue and modded, but I messed about inside the chassis so much it wasn't worth it, too much hassle, so now there's just a big hole in the side.

Well well well. I type this on my new system.

Very proud of myself for building my first computer (say 'arrrr') and it's all running pretty smoothly except a few things.

Which i'll sort.

Hey pandemonium - you say you have a "variable controlled" coolermaster fan - thats the one I have.

The aero 7 lite.
