Asus A7N8X Deluxe Rev 2.0 running Uber Bios 1005
AMD Athlon XP 2500+ Barton running at 200x11 (2205mhz)

Maxtor 80MB 7200RPM 8MB Cache HDD

I'm probably going to build a Intel 2.4c in a few months when the prices fall a bit.
I might also buy a bigger case and throw together a home-grown water cooling system for this system.
