man that is one nice pc I would say at or over a thousand bucks worth

This sounds like all the parts were off of Tigerdirect.com (doesn't matter....just fyi)

If the system was all brand new parts and put together for you I would say $750-800max

*edit* btw I priced all of the new parts (or similar parts) and added them up on tigerdirect.com

I'd have to say a little bit lower in price that the others...I wouldn't pay more than aroun $500-$600 plus normal shipping costs if you're getting it shipped....sounds like a decent system, but I would definitely do atleast two of the four things listed below first:

1. Upgrade to 1GB of atleast PC3200
2. Upgrade the video card to atleast a Radeon 9600
3. Upgrade the Hard Drive to atleast a 120GB
4. Upgrade the CDRW to a DVDRW Dual-Format

Nice system, but to me it should atleast meet the specs that I have in mine (other than the DVD burner, that's next, heh), mainly because for a new system right now, my specs should be a little above the bare minimum for a light to medium gamer.
