New System

[rahvyn]

Hi All;

I am looking to build a new system, and want to stay under $1000. I need something that will be used mostly for gaming, and will be able to play future releases for (hopefully) the next 1.5 - 2 years. I dont have any preferences for components, just looking for a system that performs well. Thanks in advance for your help.

You'll want a fast video card, probably a 9700 or 9700 Pro, and a fast processor, probably a P4 2.53, Athlon XP2600+, or faster.
