    Right now I am using a:

    Pentium 2 350 mhz
    128mb PC100 SDRam
    2x DVD ROM
    100mb Zip Drive
    16mb ATI Rage 128
    Aureal 3d sound card
    10/100 Ethernet card
    56k V.90 modem
    17" Monitor
    Cambridge Soundworks 4 speaker sub speakers

    That is starting to get really slow, so I am presently in the middle of buiding a:

    1.2GHz Athlon T-Bird w/ 200 mhz FSB
    Abit KT7A-Raid mobo
    Crucial 256mb PC133 SDRam
    2 30GB IBM Deskstar 75GXP w/ Ultra ATA/100
    Creative Labs GeForce2 w/ 64mb DDR-Ram
    Creative Labs Sound Blaster Live
    10/100 Ethernet Card
    56k V.90 modem
    Black Alienware Case(not an alienware system)
    400 watt power supply
    52x Cd-Rom Drive
    Black Viewsonic E790B 19"

    If you notice any possible incompatibilites I would be greatful if you could inform me. I do know of the possible incompatibility with the IBM Deskstar HD, that is why I might be thinking of another HD any suggestions?
