AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ Windsor 2.0GHz Socket AM2 Dual Core
CORSAIR XMS2 1GB (2 x 512MB)
Western Digital Raptor WD740ADFD 74GB 10,000 RPM

The 939 Contains
ASUS A8N5X Socket 939
SAPPHIRE 100119L Radeon X550 256MB
AMD Athlon 64 4000+ San Diego 2.4GHz Socket 939
CORSAIR ValueSelect 1GB (2 x 512MB)
Western Digital Caviar SE WD2500JS 250GB 7200 RPM

***UPDATED***

I have to tie up wires still and then i be shipping it out!

It would love for a friend to build me a comp . That's awesome of you.. thanks for sharing the pics. So is he just going to use it for a general pc... nothing in particular?

ya he doesnt really game so i got him some low end gpus but enough so he wont be bogged down when he IS 3d apping.
He told me he just wanted speed increase from his 6 year old snailmachine. So i got an AM2 to test that out, along with a 939 which i knew more about. (i think the 939 will be faster) but who knows was an interesting build because i did a bunch of stuff i havent done b4. I KNOW he'll be happy

Nice one man

Ahhh very nice indeed. What's better than one install ?? TWO !!!!!!!

PuN

looking good man. i like those case's.....subtle and simple. imo it looks the cleanest and the best.

Yeah def. Should have tested the board, cpu, ram and psu before installing in the case tho :0

Now about the maps, he he
i have a map made, but i didnt liek thse size of certain things so i started over, and it is WIKID awsome now, but i havent had time to finish the mapping part or apply textures lolz!
