My new gaming rig

I just ordered my new machine. It should be here in about 7 - 10 days.

CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ dual core
MB: Asus (socket AM2) M2N32-SLI Deluxe nForce 590
Graphics: Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTX 768mb
HARD DRIVE: 320GB 3.0/gbs 16mb cache
POWER SUPPLY: Enermax Galaxy 1000 watt
RAM: 2gb

I already have a good flat screen monitor ( 19", 4ms response / 1400:1 ratio).

I'm starting to hyper-ventilate a little bit. JEEBUS, that was a lot of money. I've been saving my pennies since June.

I know, its crazy. If you have two 8800's, one of them can actually act as an additional CPU, and they have built-in PhysX capability.
