Damn. I must pass up my title of "Best Computer":

Anyway, here's mine:

Code Name: Xanadu (I'll give someone an e-cookie if you can figure out from what movie I got the name)
Hint: Kane and it's an old movie)

Processor: AMD Opteron 146 @ 2.0 GHz
Motherboard: EPoX EP-9NPA+Ultra (second best overclocker mobo at the time)
RAM: 2 GB OCZ DDR PC3200 (I think)
GFX: eVGA nVidia 7800GT
Sound: Audigy 2 ZS
Hard Drive 1: 250GB SATA 16MB cache (Windows XP Pro)
Hard Drive 2: 60 GB ATA130 (Ubuntu Server Edition) -hardly used & probably needs to be put in the next computer I build as a server
Case: ANTEC LANboy
Cooling Fans: Silen-X 120mm cooling fans (2)
Heatsink/Fan: ARCTIC COOLING Freezer64 (If I remember correctly) -this thing is HUGE
Media Drive: Sony CD/DVD-R/-RW/-ROM Dual-Layer Burner
Speakers: Sennheisser PC150 Headphones (great for gaming, movies, etc)
Monitor: Samsung SyncMaster 730B (8ms response time!)

This is my gaming machine. Still runs smooth even though it's coming up on its second "birthday".

It cost me a pretty penny and I'm damn proud of it since it was my first computer and the first computer I've put together. Won't be upgrading until DirectX10 becomes absolutely nessisary (sp?).

Edit: Thanks Floodhound you reminded me of a couple details I forgot.
