I love my hard drive. Best thing about my computer in my opinion, 200gb 8mb cache western digital.

And this is from my 4gb in my old computer...

ehhh retail go oem next time. Make sure to get a good 1GB of ram not just stuff that is cheap. Get an ATI card instead of the GF4 blows them out of the water.

Got you all beat, 2 GB hard drive, 256 ram, intell pentieum 3, 548 MHZ, G-force 2, 15in COMPAQ monitor. I get about 50-80 FPS in Counter-Strike. Cant play any other game, sucks the life out of the comp, but there is only one comp game in my life... CS.

Maxtor has surpassed Western Digital in quality in recent years. They are still the only two brands I trust, but I think Maxtor currently has the edge.

lol next time buy the car instead of 2GB of of RDRAM. And why a Ti4600 when you could of got an ATI? Unless you are using divx or vcds a regular dvd movie wont even fit on those anymore.

Maybe 5 years ago. And fire I have a Ti4600 oc'd and I still cant touch the ATI 9700. It destroys the GF4 in just about every game and you need one to play any of the newer games at a respectable speed. I am an nvidia fan boy but right now I have to go with ATI. Lets see what nvidia is going to have for us May 12 though.
