Also, as I already mentioned, the components are well matched - none of them are too fast for the other components (for example, putting a 6800Ultra wouldn't make much sense in that system)
As for Jiffyman - you might want to specify what you're planning on doing with the computer for us to tell you if its "good" or not.

I put it in terms he could understand. He asked if the system was good, good to me is a performance rating in simple terms. If he asked me what the difference was between two components and I said, "your graphics card sucks" that would be a different story. I don't really know what you expect me to answer to a person who asks if his computer is "good" or not, I don't see how I could reply back to that with specs. I didn't mean it as a personal insult to the guy or something.
800MHz is way outdated. The hard drive is good, the ram is decent, the graphics card is very old, you won't be able to play many games on that. Oh, and honestly, who asks if their pc is "good" or not if all they want to do is run programs. Sure people benchmark how fast stuff can be processed but let's get down to it, anybody seeking advice on if their system is good or not and anybody buying new high end pcs want them for gaming or extreme video and graphics editing. Theres really no use for having a PC thats really good other than that.
