So I finally decided to build a new computer.  If you already did not know, this is what I used to be running:

Asus P3b-F motherboard
Pentium III 450
256 Mb of PC 133 RAM
10 GB Maxtor 5400 RPM
24x CD-ROM
2x HP CD-RW
Sound Blaster MP3+5.1
15" Toshiba Black monitor

As you can see this was not doing me very well, so I decided to upgrade to this..

MSI KT3 Ultra-ARU W/ RAID
AMD Athlon XP 1800+
512 Kingmax PC2700 DDR RAM
80 GB 7200 RPM Western Digital SE Hd W/ 8 meg buffer
52x/12x CD/DVD Drive
40x12x48x Lite-On CD-Burner
Sound Blaster Audigy
19" Flat CRT ViewSonic Black Monitor

As you can see, this is a pretty sweet setup.  Its not the fastest on the market, but it was what I could afford and its 100 times better than my old system.
