Not bad at all. What brand if you don't mind me asking? I had a 250 gig SATA but the thing was faulty after the warranty expired. But man was that thing nice. You won't need to upgrade that hdd if you aren't into music or pictures. I have a Radeon X1650 512 mb and it is sweet so you must be in heaven. I have never tried an AMD but I hear they are good and the next PC I build will have one in it. As long as it isn't a Dell you are in good shape (I have always had issues with Dells and their customer service is really poor).

HP / Evonow  hehe I had to pull out the PSU when I bought it and upgrade to a 450 watt so I could power the X1950 Pro.  So i'll consider this one still part Evonow hehe.  But yea i'm pretty happy with it ... Still trying to organzie everything though.  I've been trying to setup file sharing on my home network but my XP computer won't talk to my Vista computer.  I guess it's the older brother younger brother scenario.

It is hard with Vista but it is possible to do file sharing. Unless you have home edition then I don't know.
