$3000+(might want to upgrade the case a bit it's pretty bare)

Although this system is valid... anyone looking to spend this much money should really take a moment and consider a few things:
  1. Will they be able to notice any performance gains?
  2. Do they have the necessary expertise needed to actually configure the parts in order to obtain the higher performance levels? (i.e., overclock)
  3. Will they be able to notice any performance gains? Yes I know I asked this already -- just that 90% of people who think they notice a difference, in fact, dont. Sure feels good tho
So yeah, in all seriousness, if you're budget is genuinely in excess of 3K, make a post -- and please be sure to state exactly what you want to do with the system and what you expect etc. and we'll see about getting you a more hand-tailored solution.


------------
Before anyone says otherwise, a system -- even one as wasteful as this, is not going to last 2 years. Period.

$300Although technically 95cents over, this config has such a high value it's hard to discount -- a full Pentium4 and 2GB of RAM ... on a $300 -- very high value.

$500With the extra allocation we move to the Core2 Duo platform, upgrade the harddrive and switch to a multi-monitor capable platform.
