No, no razzle dazzle. I standardised my two desktops to almost equal specs.
SOYO KT600 Dragon Ultra Platinum
3200 Barton water cooled
1.5 gb PC3200 (Kingston on one, Corsair on the other, got rid of the Mushkin almost as soon I put it in)
Maxtor 120gb x 2 sata striped and water cooled
MSI GForce FX5900 Ultra 256 on one, and 5950 Ultra 256 on the other, water cooled, with a TVAnywhere Master to replace a 9800 Pro AIW that kept screwing up.
Yamaha cdrw, Sony dvd rw on one, just a Lite on cd for the game only machine.
Audigy 2 Platinum for the gamer, Audigy 2 ZS for the other.
The gamer is used on our SONY HDTV and connects to the living room stereo, the photo machine uses 5.1 Cambridge Soundworks. Assorted printers (all HP with ehternet ports as I got rid of the print server) and a scanner (HP) connected via a G wireless Linksys network using an A30p as the most used machine.
I really don't have the inclination or patience to overclock.
Do a search of my name and you will see the history of my stuff. BoCo put up some pics of one of them also.
I wouldn't offer something that was less than what I would use. I think there is still some warranty left on it also.
