Well, only cause I haven't got any competition yet.
AMD 64 3200+ (the old one with 1MB cache), Asus K8V Deluxe, 1GB Corsair Twinx RAM, Radeon 9600XT, Creative Audigy 2ZS, Avermedia DVB-TV, D-Link DWL-G510 wireless, 4x DVD+/-RW burner, 16x DVD read/48x CD burner, 120GB PATA, 120GB SATA, 2x200GB SATA in RAID 0, Thermaltake case, keyboard and mouse, 400W power supply, 19" Mitsubishi CRT, 17" Dell CRT, Thrustmaster joystick, Inspire T7700 speakers, Windows XP Pro, Windows XP x64 Pro, Windows Vista Beta 1. And a total of 8 fans inside the case.
I think that's about it.
If your computer is not at least close to that, you really should upgrade soon!:p

Built on Gamedude... Doesn't really cost that much... Especially since I couldn't have my colour laser multifunction duplex printer, and the FX60 CPU, and the 8GB of RAM I was aiming for (MB only support 4GB for some stupid reason, even though they are for 64 bit chips.) Also, couldn't get a decent projector, so I made do with the best I could find in there.. Meaning it only came to a measly $16080. But it would definetly be a box worth boasting about.
ahahaha try buying an fx-57
