    2.2 @ default?

    Well I give it a

    10 for vidcard
    10 for upgradablity
    8 for speed
    5 for OS
    BUT I GIVE IT A 1 for OC!

    I am wondering why it only does that at default vcore. It should go higher!

    More RAM (you've got the fast stuff so use it!)
    BIGGER monitor - this is a mint PC and you're running a 15" monitor !!??
    Otherwise - top notch
    You probably dont need to o/c the chip any more than 2.2, I run a stock 2Ghz P4 (cos the boards *%$# and wont let me o/c)
    with similar spec to yours and it runs everything perfect.
    Of course when i get a better board I will be trying to get more than 2.2 out of mine - you have to dont you!! Curiosity.

    Sounds good, but definetely needs more ram. Just for kicks I'd throw in 2 more fans. Also I'd go with a Logitech Optical mouse, but that's because I game, hardcore.

    On a one to ten scale, I'd give it an 8. I'd like to see some benchmarks on that rig.

    Give it a 7.

    Need more Ram
    Bigger Monitor

    Should have went with the I850 chipset and RDRAM.


    Other than that, nice system.

    I give it a basically because I would rather have seen an XP 2100+ their but hey it's a powerhouse anyway---that 1 point off

    Windows xp home I would have gone for pro- 1 point off

    15inch moniter is a pure waste of that video card and computer. At least a 17inch wouldbe much better---- 2 off there

    Overall a 6 very nice system
