My new computer

(Wasn't sure what forum to post this in, so this one seemed most appropriate)

Hey all, I just wanted to post my new computer's specs here. I ordered it from a company that specializes in giving you the most efficient PC for your money. They also overclock it for you and everything before you get it. I'll be receiving it soon. And without further delay, here are the specs:

Case: Chieftec Dragon Aluminum
Power supply: Enermac EG365P 350 watt
Blue/Green Internal neon lighting
Fan 'LED' Color: Tri-Color
Processor: p4 2.4ghz 800 mhz fsb (overclocked to 3.6)
Processor Cooling: Corsair watercooling unit
Motherboard: IC7-G MaxII Advance
Memory: Corsair 1 gig pc3500 433mhz
OS: Windows Home Edition
Video Card: GeForce FX 5900 256mb
Speakers: Logitech Z-640
Monitor: NEC AccuSync 120 21"
HD: Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 120gb SATA150 8mb 7200rpm
CD/RW/DVD-Rom LTC-4816H (Lite-On)
DVD+RW/-RW DW-U10A-BK 4x2x Sony
Logitech Cordless Elite Duo


Any suggestions/comments? The system is very expensive, but I think it's worth paying the money for, I'd rather have a computer that's crafted up to every last detail, like they do, (they spend 48 hours on each new computer), than one I'd build myself.

Where did you get it from? I don't think it would take 48 hours to put all that stuff togeather for you. Even with installing Windows and all the software.

overdrivepc.com .. but they check for stability with everything, and they also overclock the computer for you.. they also are very very detailed in how they set up the inside of the computer, as to making everything as organized and secure as possible, I suppose. So what was your opinion on the system?

Ohh, then the 48 hours must be for a burn-in test.
I personally wouldn't go with the Pentium4, but the rest looks awesome. Why didn't you go with WindowsXP Pro?

The owner of the company said I only really needed XP Pro if I was running some sort of home business, or something of that sort, but I'm just gaming, do you think I should still go with it?

Also, he said I shouldn't go with AMD because, although they currently have faster mhz then Intel, Intel has more stability and simply can't match 3.6ghz while keeping the same price. I'm not implying AMD is bad at all though, I think it's great too, but his reasons seemed pretty understandable for using Intel

The sound card isn't needed because the motherboard already comes with onboard 6-channel audio controller.. and for the whole system I paid $3,000 .. probably a lot more than I should of had to but it was worth it.
