Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-MA790GPT-UD3H CPU: AMD Athlon II X2 Regor 250 3.0GHz Video Card: XFX GeForce 9500 GT 1GB DDR2 RAM: G.SKILL 2GB DDR3 SDRAM 1066 Optical Drive: LITE-ON SATA iHAS124-04 Case & HDD Combo: Cooler Master CM 690 & Western Digital Caviar Black 640GB Power Supply: Cooler Master Extreme Power Plus 460W Everything in this thing should be upgradable for the next 5 years or so, assuming AMD stays with the AM3 socket. Seeing as I haven't a job of any sort, it might take a while to gather up $500, but it'll be worth it. Just take a look at my current specs below... CPU: AMD Athlon XP 3200+ 2.2GHz Video Card: Radeon 9600 PRO Motherboard: Generic PoS from HP RAM: Generic brand, 1GB DDR333 HDD: WD 160GB Man, this computer is going to be awesome.
