Thats a pretty awesome setup. Remind me to run the other way when were on the same UT2003 server.
 
lol building up an emachines is like putting a corvette engine and design on a Yugo, no offense :D If I were you I'd change out the motherboard, but then its not really and emachine at all.
 
hahah yeah i know everyone is gonna hate the system lol but u gotta say its better than buyin a dell or compaq my parents are not really into me bulding **** so they bought this for em and i transformed it and all but yeah it can keep up with most systems and im not planning on keeping this either
im selling it for 650 to some guy i think its well worth it
 
hahah thnx but seriously it looks alot better now that i sleeved the million wires all black inside
looks way nicer i wish i had money to get a camera
 
they think i might break it and **** while im taken like all A+ classes and stuff and am well over qualified to do it but yeah i wish i could

I built my first computer when I was... ten or eleven. :p Hehe

Cool lookin' rig ya got there.
 
Once you nuke the OS and do a reinstall, a Dell works just like any other computer you could build (I know, I've put a Dell 1.8GHz machine through 3 OS changes in 2 years, and I've also got a Dell laptop that I haven't had a chance to put through its paces yet). Except it's a lot harder to OC them, if possible at all. More than I can say for a Compaq though, we used to have one of those too. It met a nasty end to a hammer after it outlived its usefulness.

Nice machine, that thing'd be a monster if it weren't for the eMachines motherboard. I had a rig like that once, where it was an old machine we bought from a local PC shop. The motherboard was an Asus, but when I finally got rid of it, the CD-ROM and floppy drives were the only other parts left that came with the original computer.
 
lol well the only reason i modded this was because i wanted to prove to my parents that i could build my own rig and i knew what i was doing so yeah. the mobo is totally crap and so is the cpu alotta people say that you cant overclock the 2200+ i should of thought of that earlier or before i bought it. If anyone knows if it can be overclocked lol help me out.
