Welcome
For those that have known me for over 5 years may recall an online newsletter I used to publish called the "Chronicles of the Bored". As it turns out, what I really was doing was sharing a mashup of news articles I found interesting (long before the Web 2.0 was invented). So now that the technology has caught up, I've decided to revive the CotB using Blogger and Google Reader. Enjoy!
After weeks of painstakingly comparing different components, brands, and technologies, I've finally finalized my new PC setup.
Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 3.16 GHz
ASUS P5Q Pro LGA 775 P45 (Crossfire compatible)
4GB (2x2GB) DDR2 1066 Dual Channel RAM
Radeon HD 4870 512MB 256-bit video card (Crossfire ready)
500 GB SATA 3GB/s 7200 rpm 32MB cache HDD
20x DVD+/- R/RW Burner
Linkworld 500W ATX Tower + Power Supply
Total Cost: $650

I would probably just up the HD to 1TB.
Im planning to get a separate 1TB HDD just for media in the future. This 500GB would probably be just for the OS and applications.
