    Very l33t. You ever plan on overclocking it?
    What kinda case you got?

    And wtf is up with Bawls. Gerad is obsessed with them. Am I missing out.. ? It just sounds like Mountain Dew.

    Yeah, we dont have any of this shit here, Bawls or Mountain Dew or anything. We have Red Bull which i belive is similar, but it tastes horrible.

    OMG man it's great to hear from you again. It's been a looooong time.

    Same here. I thought 512 would be plenty, but it's hardly enough to keep Photoshop open while listening to music and browsing the web.

    Agreed...512 just wasn't doing it for me. Running 1.5 gb now...and by the way durrendel, the link to the case pic is not working...

    I beat the first stats you posted, but now I'm behind in ram and gfx...not sure how to compare AMD to Intel statistically, though...

    only way is speed, although in my experience a lower rated AMD will outpreform an intel any day of the week. just my opinion tho :P

    and NVidia > ATI

    and all u need is another stick of 512, thats enough to keep anything in windows running (since windows cant use more then 1gb of ram at a time ne way)

    wait for vista, lol

    but my comment is a bit misleading, windows itself cannot use more then 1gb, but applications (such as high end games, BF2, WoW, DOOM 3, Half Life 2, ect...) can max out basicly whatever your comp has.

    i know that BF2 maxes out my comp at about 3/4 graphical capacity (that is giving it a little leway as i do want extra ram so i dont frame lag at a bad time and get wasted)

    Yeah, I understood that. But Windows itself can't! Of course, it probably won't need to (if it does, that is one heavily loaded Windows), but it's nice to know your operating system isn't a wuss.

    yea, then again, to be a bit fair to windows (as if it needs fairness >.>) it is really just a platform for other applications to run off of and if you want it operating in that capacity as well as possible you want it to use as little RAM as possible to leave room for the applications you want running

    and takai, try moving photoshop up on ur priority list, should help it out a bit

    i'm alive too by the way! and yea windows can't use more than 1 gb, but that goes the same for every other OS as well...what OS do you use protocol? i bet it's windows. and Durr please don't get vista! i have used the beta version of it and it is the exact same comparison as the upgrade from windows 2000 to windows Me in other words, it's the same OS with more flash and style
