Currently putting together it's replacement... but
AMD Athalon 64 3000+
Thermaltake BigWater 120mm water cooler
MSI KA8 NEO2 (thats right... Nforce 2!!! what are they up to now... like 7?)
1 gig Crucial DDR400 (forget how I have it timed... not at home to check)
Radeon 9800
Seagate Barricuda SATA 200gb HD
Onboard sound.
This thing has served me wonderfully for about 5 years. Still runs great, just doesnt play all the new stuff as fast as I'd like it to. Other than that, it's been stable and virus free for that whole time (never had to reformat/reinstall windows.) Take that all who knock the stability of windows machines!
(When I get the new one, this will probably be converted to a MythTV box.)

This is my gaming rig running on Vista x64. I went x64 for the 64 bit versions of FarCry and Crysis to name a few. Built it about 2 months ago. Been great so far.
Well my Desktop looks like a n00b in front of your high tech configurations.
AMD X2 4200+
ASUS M2NMX SE
2 GB DDR 2 RAM 533MHz
Windows XP SP3 , skinned to make look like Vista.

No Graphics card yet, plan to buy 7800 GT soon.
This is pretty ok for me as i don't play high profile games, I still play CS 1.6 and this machine is pretty good for it.
