I just finished my new PC build, and I think it's a system that some of you may actually like.
Specs:
Apple PowerMac G5 Case
Zippy H1H-6500P 500w PSU
Asus K8N-DL nForce 4 Professional Motherboard
Dual AMD Opteron 275's (2.2Ghz - Dual Core - 4 Cores Total)
2048MB Corsiar XMS PC3200 REG ECC CAS2-3-2-6 1T (NUMA Enabled - 12.8GB/sec)
ATI Radeon X1900XTX 512MB
Sound Blaster x-Fi Fatal1ty
150GB Western Digital Raptor 10000rpm 16MB Cache SATA
250GB Western Digital 7200rpm 16MB Cache
LiteOn 16X Dual Layer DVD-RW
Apple Keyboard
Logitech MX1000 Mouse
Logitech Z-5500 5.1 Speakers (520w RMS)
Dell 2405fpw 24" LCD 1920x1200
It took me about two weeks to get it all put together. It's nice to have a system with the style of a Mac, and the Power of a PC. It's also quieter than my Dual 2.5Ghz G5 was so that's a big plus. While I see Windows XP as a benifit, most would disagree, but as a gamer it's the only option.
