Bought New Computer
Finally decided to buy a new computer, since the one I am using right now is getting old and slow. It will arrive probably in some days. First system I buy that is custom built, that is I chose all the hardware for it the way I wanted it to be. Cheaper and better. Anyways, here is my next machine:
Chieftec Dragon Fulltower, Black
Levicom PSU, 500W, Black
Thermaltake A1869 X-Blower Fan Kit
Asus P4C800 i875P Motherboard
Intel Pentium 4 Northwood 3.2GHz, 800MHz
Thermaltake A1715 Spark 7, CPU Cooler
2x Kingston KVR400X64C3, 512MB PC3200/DDR400
Maxtor DiamondMax Plus9 6Y160P0 160Gb (7200RPM, 8MB Cache)
Standard 1.44Mb 3.5" floppy Black
Lite-On CD/DVD Rom 16X/48X, Black
Lite-On CD-RW 52x32x52x, Black
Club 3D Radeon 9800Pro 128MB DDR
D-Link DFE-530TX, 10/100Mbit
Windows XP Professional
What do you think? Very excited to get this system.

Its a web store from Sweden, so its not something like New Egg, but its kind of similar. I had the option to receive all the parts and build it myself, but since I've never built a whole computer by myself, I decided to receive it already built, safer IMO. Had to spend some bucks on it though, but I don't want to take the risk of building it myself.

Why? Are you interested in it? Will have to check first if the computer is not going to be used by someone in my family. If not, then yes, I would like do get rid of it
