I strongly dislike my Biostar mobo... mostly because its old and falling apart, but still!

Don't skimp on motherboards or power supplies. You've been warned. Nothing worse than hunting down random errors.

Well I have it assembled. So far its been great and runs Crysis at 20-30 FPS on high settings.

I went with an ASUS M3A-H MB and already had a nice PSU.

I didnt need anything too fancy. Just a machine to last a couple years.

ETA: I forgot to add my 8800GT akimbo blocks both my PCI express slots so I had to return the TV tuner. I need to find a PCI one.

Ive never had good luck with Seagate...in the past year, I lost two identical Seagate Barracuda 500Gb SATA drives, 3 months apart from each other, they just croaked...lost everything...twice. Lost photos of the lunar eclipse, of an airshow, and other items...

Running Western Digital Caviar 500Gb SATA now...
