I just got through building a top-of-the-line gaming box.

Lian Li case.

FSP Group AX500ATTX 500W Power Supply.

Western Digital Raptor 10K rpm SATA HDs.

LaCie 16x d2 USB2/Firewire Doublelayer DVD +/- RW Drive

Abit Fatal1ty AA8XE Intel Motherboard w/ 925XE Chipset.

Abit Fatal1ty X800XL PCI Express Graphics Card w/512 MB RAM onboard.

Intel Plentium 4 650 Prescott 3.4GHz 800FSB 2MG Cache socket 775 processor.

4GB Geil DDR2-533 PC4300 Memory.

9 case fans, 1 Intel cpu & 2 chipset OTES Ramflow, and 2 memstick fans, temp., power, and rpm controlled from Abit uGuru software.

It overclocks to 5.3 GHz on Half Life 2 without liquid cooling. The case LEDs are for fun.

An AMD setup will save a few bucks, with slightly less performance.

I went with a game setup, because if a kid can't break it, it will last a long time.

So...can you heat your house with that rig or just the computer room?
