I Ordered a Machine (was GeForce FX 5600 or Ti4800?)
OK, I went ahead and ordered the machine with the GeForce 5600 Ultra. Here is what I got for less than $1200:
P4 2.8 Ghz Hyper-Threaded 800Mhz FSB Gigabit Motherboard GA-8IK1100 (875P chipset) 512MB PC3200 400Mhz Dual DDR RAM ThermalTake Case with 7 fans and 12 drive bays (500W power) 80GB HD w/8MB cache 16x DVD 52x24x52 CDRW GeForce FX 5600 Ultra 256MB 8X AGP/TV/DVI Sounblaster Audigy 5.1 Digital Network Carc/Keyboar/Mouse I think I got a good deal. It is much better than what I have available at home right now.

I thought the deal was a good one too! I searched the internet for a week and even called some "local builders" The price was usually around $1600 for the stuff listed above. The drive is a bit small, but drive prices and memory prices are both dropping, so I can add that stuff in baby steps.

No need Rincewind - the link to the site is enough - not one I've come across before and damn they are cheap!
