My PC only costs around $600 to build, better than most of the ones you buy from the stores and stuff.

Your dad can probably help you, everything comes with a manual..

www.newegg.com

I'd have to agree that Newegg.com is the best place to buy Computer Hardware. Plus, they have great service and fast shipping.

Close to necroposting but I have to tell you guys..

FlatOut 2 is an awesome game. There's a great mod community (Flat Joint Forums) and the online multiplayer is just kick ass. I've been playing it for 3 days straight now..

Also, if anyone has Xfire, tell me your name so I can add you!

Ha ha ha!! here's my specs...

1.9 GHz Pentium 4
256 MB RAM
Nvidia something piece of crap. Before they started the numbering system though....

All i'm running right now is Mozilla, GIMP, NetZero, and Frets On Fire (GH clone) Even Fof and OPENSOURCE program is laggy....

Gonna upgrade after a month or so to Vista. My dad won't let me build a laptop, so I'm probably gonna get a xps or so for College next year.

Not nearly high enough. It's enough to run the source engine (CS:S, Half life 2, DOD:S) at a decent resolution, but I still get some video lag when there are a lot of sprites on the screen. I'm upgrading, or maybe just building a new one for when Guild Wars 2 comes out.

OO YA! I totally gotta upgrade by the time Guild Wars 2 comes out!! It's gonna be awesome.
