OS: I haven't had any prob. w/ XP home but pro is obviously a good idea
Vid:I run a Geforce FX 5600 Ultra w/ 128 ddr. w/o any problem. Haven't come across a game to slow it down yet.
HD: Ok, non-raptor style serial drives are just adapted IDE drives with a different interface. I run a 36g Raptor for all my programs and a 30g ide for all my files. Windows load really fast. I can be booted up and playing games by the time my friends laptop is asking for his PW.
PSU: ANTEC!! can't say much more. They are one of the very few, test proven power supplies. Don't believe me, go to Tom's Hardware guide and read it for yourself. I run a Antec 430 True Power. The True Power lines are actually stronger than their rating and if you've worked with other antec stuff, you know its pretty good
Also, get yourself some good memory. Its very important. No since in running a nice processor and crap mem. I run 1gig, paired Corsair D-DDR at 800mhz. Computer halls ass
