    Well, the first computer I have ever built I built for myself and here's the specs:

    Abit 680i SLI Mobo 800 FSB :(,
    Geforce 8600 GTS 512 Graphics,
    Intell Core 2 3.0 GHz processor,
    7200 RPM 250gig Hard Drive,
    2 Gigs of cas 4 latency 800 ram,
    Mad Dog 7.1 sound card,
    DVD-CD read/write combo,
    2 MB/S Cable Internet.

    As I said, this is my first build and if I could do it again I would have totally different spec's. After building 2 computers post build, I have learned a lot and am eager to build another.
