Computer 2003
 

My final thoughts...
I love this new computer. I am very pleased with each component that I selected for this machine, and it was a nearly painless process to assemble all the parts inside the case. However, deciding on what parts to use was no easy task and it required lots, and lots of reading. I plan on writing an article on how to benchmark your machine, as well as posting my results for a possible comparison soon. Finally, I know that for the majority of people out there it is just simpler to buy an entire system than assembling your own, however once you finish the process, using a computer you built yourself is very rewarding.
