almost done with a decent PC i can work with for a while (OMG LOTS OF READING AND LEARNING). Still waiting on someone to pick up my i7980. Im considering just waiting next year to build a PC since all the new stuff is just around the corner, ie: x79/LGA2011/Geforce GTX600/SB-Ei7/DDR3quad/PCIe3.0/ all power saving options vs older tech. I might as well drop a good 2k on a rig next year than attempt to build something good now.

Here is what iv got going so far
ASUS M4N78 Pro ($40)
AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ 2.0ghz windsor AM2 (free)
8G 2gx4 Crucial Ballistix Sport PC2-6400 ($80)
Variable 1G Nvida Geforce 8400GS 512mb GPU (FREE) Running Hybrid SLI with Nvida 8200 512mb mGPU
Using old IDE 80G@7200rpm WD HDD with ($10) IDEtoSATA converter.

I still need a decent CPU fan, im thinking of the;
Cooler Master Hyper N520 CPU Cooler - $30
