Pros: Super-Duper Fast with 16 MB cache.

- Proaudio Spectrum 16
- 8 Mb DIMM RAM
- Creative 4x cd-rom
- 512k/1.44mb 5.25/3.5 high speed disk drive
- 100 Mb SCSI HDD (KIA -- during a WOW all-nighter dayer and nighter again)
-this hard drive has double the ram I have in system in it's own cache and like 3200 times more space.
-Custom cardboard 24 can Coke case w/ hinged cardboard window
-Swifttech H20-220-APEX-GT Water cooling kit use AS 5 it help me get some crazy clocks
-This processor handles all the graphics now I OC'd it

60fps in Gorrilas
Runs Wolfenstien 3d like a champ 59fps (if I could get my FSB 1 more Mhz up I might get like 61fps w/o V-sync)

lastly logging on takes an average of 2 min with windows 3.0 SWEEt

Pros: Fast, Quiet, and Reliable!!!

Cons: None.

Other Thoughts: If you value your data then you should only buy Western Digital hard drives... I've been building computers for 14 years and never had a WD harddrive go bad on me or anyone else yet... Just check out the reviews on all the seagate and other brands of drives here and you'll see their failure rates are totally unacceptable... I wish Maximum PC magazine would take that into consideration when they do their reviews...
