Did you DIY the coolers? They look super cool and seem built to last.

No sir they're just some coolers I had laying around when I built the systems.
Cooler on the i7 is a Scythe Grand Kama Cross and on the Pentium 4 is a Zalman CNPS7700.

The cooler on the nvidia 4600ti ís custom, it's a Zalman VF1000 gpu cooler.

Hello

Here is my specs:
AMD Athlon x2 4800+
MSI K8N NEO2 PLATINUM
ATI HD3850 AGP
KINGSTON HYPERX DDR1 512MT x4
SOUND BLASTER X-FI ELITE SB0550

why yes yes they do!

AMD Athlon X2 4400+ OCed to 2.4GHz (4800+)
Asus A8NSLI32 Deluxe
Nvidia Geforce 9800 GTX+
2GB Corsair XMS DDR 400 (2x 1GB)
250GB Maxtor MaxLine III (probably going to upgrade to a more modern HDD as this is dog slow even for a 7200RPM Sata drive)
Audigy 2 ZS

it is cool looking, what kinds of games would you say are the sweet spot for this set up that is kind of in between 'beige' and later systems?
