Hey Michael, if it helps any, I just put together a sleeper workstation/gaming machine for less than $500, without monitor. The ol' PIII 450 was starting to slow me down with work stuff.
It has: Case MSI Nforce2 Motherboard (onboard GeforceMX graphix, six channel audio, RAID controller, serial ATA if you want to use it) AMD2500 Barton 512MB DDR333 RAM 120GB ATA133 Hard Drive DVD ROM drive Most of it was ordered from accuPC.com. resellerratings.com is another great site if you want to get really picky with prices and spend time searching around. The system is all set up and it rips - even with the onboard graphix. The graphix can be updated when the new cards get a bit cheaper - not going to spend the same amount as my computer on a graphics card. If you want more details or anything, let me know.
