Thanks N1K, I hope you were looking at mine and not dude-uk bad ass system. LOL

You are the man ccl0. Now it's running at 2.993ghz. It is so much faster now.

Thanks cclo. I will give that a try.

My CPU-z CPU Speed is at 798.3mb. Isn't there away to get that to 3.0G? It's a 3.0 CPU.

OK, I have tried everything but can't get my CPU to read 3.0G unless I am running a heavy load. Here is my BIOS Options.

Thanks, I cant wait to get a graphics card.

OK, my PC is built and running. Now several hours of software installation and imaging and I will be up and running. I will post pics later. Windows Experience Index Processor 6.5 Memory 5.9 Graphics 4.3 Gaming Graphics 5.4 Primary Hard Disk 5.4

ROFLMAO, In the 80's. Are you making fun of us follicly challenged people. :ranting:

I am glad the IP-DUO is back. I did like that one also. Now I have 2 great skins to choose from.

Only thing I could say is that all AV pro. are going to have false positives. When I was testing AV pro. I paid attention to what files were reported and made my conclusion to what I was going to do. I also burned known viruses to a cd for my testing. I tested NOD because I heard it was the best and used low resources. Now you have to decide which one pacifies you, so that way you feel comfortable. I am a little afraid to give MS a shot being that they can't make a OS that is virus free.

Maybe NOD is slipping. Back when it 1st came out I ran it against AVG, Avast, ZL and it found things they had missed. But with so many false positives, who really knows. I think until NOD becomes a resource hog, all of the ealier user's will stay with it. But that is my opinion and I am still a big fan of NOD.

I use Acronis True Image and it's easy. I want to try out Ghost though.

Since this is a company. If all the computers are the same modlels, why don't you make images? Not sure who your company is setup though. The one I woeked for all the PC's were the same so images were used.

What issues did you have with NOD. I haven't had any issues yet. Well, that I am aware of. Do you think Essentials will be as good as the leading AV pro.?

Thanks N1, I actually spent day on it and I mean whole days. LOL. 3 different site and 20 - 30 different combos.

Yeah, not to bad for being on a 200 usd budget

As soon as I get the parts I will take pics and take pics of the build. Maybe even video record the build. LOL With over 100 system builds I have never recorded any.

OK, I have ordered my parts. :thumbsup_anim::dribble: AMD Atholon II x 2 Regore 3.0Ghz Asus M4A785-M HDMI Micro ATX Patriot Viper II 4G (2 x 2G) DDR2 1066 (PC8500) I spent more than I should have so I will be waiting the 3 day ground service. :crying_anim02:

OK, I have pretty much decided to go with THIS. So My question is what RAM should I get. Should I go with: 1066 or 800

I added the hyperlink to the word "this." but it would not show.

It's hard to find a 939 but I did find this. (For some reason hyperlink is not working) http://www.pricegrabber.com/user_sales_getprod.php?masterid=16226924&lot_id=9227489

Yeah, They also know me by name. LMAO. They don't have a large CPU selection, well under a 100. That was going to be my 1st place but I didn't see much for my budget.

Thanks Mr_Smartepants, maybe I should hold off a little longer and save up more.
