How much did you pay for your "rig"

Intel CPU : $160 (after $10 rebate)
Gigabyte Mobo : $90 (after $10 rebate)
Sapphire GPU : $50 (after $25 MIR)
2 Gb Ram : $28 (after $25 MIR)
Antec PSU : $50 (after $10 rebate)
320gb HDD : $50 (bought from Omega)
XP Pro : $135 (after $5 rebate)


I still need a monitor, keyboard and a mouse
 
$1500 in 2006 when I first bought everything. And I've upgraded the CPU cooler, Monitor, GPU, Ram, a few hard drives, and a new case. So I added around $800 since then.
 
Thats not bad.

An update on my wallet. After buying my seconed 3870, everything in my sig has set me back about $2,200 :mad:
 
I've recovered $1,700 and spent $800 of that on more RAM, a new GPU and motherboard. :D

I spent around $2,000 for my laptop. At the time it was the best 15.4' laptop (for the price) on the market, but sadly technology has came so far in the past year. Oh I did pay an extra $45.00 on a memory upgrade. I'm really itching to build a desktop though...but I'll see how my summer job goes.
