it's still a decent rig bro  
i just built a new rig, will post pictures when my camera returns from the reparation service  

my rig is about 3 years old :
this is the original setup-

amd 64 s939 3000+
asus A8N-E
xfx 6600gt 256mb
transcend 512x2 ddr400
sony dru720a-dvd writer
samsung 80gb pata
seagate 120gb pata
some zebronics cabinet+400watts psu
my 4year old philips 107e5 17inch crt(the only remnant of my first build in mid 2004 when i made the biggest mistake and got myself a pentium 4 prescott)

this is what's left of it now-
AMD OPTERON 175 dual core @ 2.2ghz(Stock-crysis loves stock settings.dunno why!)
Asus A8N-E
Transcend 2x1gb=2gb ddr400
galaxy 8800GT 512mb(stock settings here)
Coolermaster cavalier
coolermaster extreme power duo 600watts psu
sony dru 810a
2xhitachi 160gb sata2=320gb
seagate 120gb pata-now my external drive
philips 107e5(its been more than 4years and still going strong!)

Yea originally it had a 3000+, Asus A8N-SLI which kind of blew / buggered up, a 6800, onboard sound and budget ram. Im tempted to give it a Q6600 and 3870 XT upgrade, but I dont need to yet. I'll try and resist upgerading for 6-12 months, but believe me resisting it is sooo hard lol  

I want upgrades all the time  

I am continually wanting to scrap my old celeron @ 2.2 and build a C2D.
It is so hard to resist the urge.

I agree that you compy is still great my system isn't even a year old and its getting its butt kicked in newer games but it doesn't matter to me I play at 1024x768 with out AA and online i turn the the settings to make sure i get the best fps possible

i guess its pointless upgrading the pc-everytime a new game /video card is let loose in the market -u feel cheated and then u feel sad about how underpowered ur 2 month old hardware is --its best to move on to consoles-the amount i paid for getting my 8800gt card-so that i could play crysis at max settings on my modest 17 inch monitor seems like a waste unless ea/crytek and nvidia do something about it @ 1024x768 without AF and most things set @ high i get about 35-40fps-could've bought a ps3/xbox360 for the same amount.

yeah thats true i mean i got my card last year and its super crap now but fps is my concern not quality and i can live with turning down the settings to play so im going to ride out my card until a game doesn't support it any more then get a high end card. That shoul be in about 3 years untill then i have my 360  

Celeron.... ewwwwwwww

mine is only a year old.

Athlon X2 (s939) 4200+ @ 2.64ghz (with massive zalman)
Corsair 2gb kit
Nvidia 256mb 7600GS
Asus A8N-Sli Premium
M-Audio Audiophile 192
WD 500gb + 250gb + 80gb
