Additional Comment:
i must add DONT BUY COMPUTER PARTS FROM DEPARTMENT STORES!!!!
reason: YOU ALMOST PAY DOUBLE ON WHAT ITS REALLY GOIN FOR
it dont hurt to shop around. i suggest www.newegg.com www.geeks.com www.xoxide.com www.pricewatch.com www.tigerdirect.com
you will find good deals on name brand parts i kno i order my computer business parts off line and i save shit loads.

Additional Comment:
another thing what ever you do do not buy DELLS! or GATEWAY! their a pain in the ass and parts are expensive their like disposable cameras cheap but you have to buy them like crazy so get a custom computer like going from disposable camera to digital lasts longer worth the extra money

DUDES.. my new power mac just got here today and its SHWEEETTTT. i dont think it can be touched. if one wanted to and had the cash it can be upgraded with 16 g ram. dont think ill ever be doin that but just knowing i can is pretty cool. i was rendering with my new lightwave program, runing photoshop with a 750 mb file on board, i had i tunes running in radio, limwire dowloading stuff, and playing battlefield 2 all at the same time and it didnt bog a bit. all i need now is to get a second lcd screen and im golden .. for a long time. i want to get the 30 inch screen mac puts out but its like 3k for it.. i think that can wait. lol this thing is sooooo awsome. sorry i said that already but im stoked beyond stoked.

What's the point of have 10k RPM hard drives?

@Razmeth: I was looking at that case when I was building my computer but decided against it. I like it though, although you have way too many LEDs.

That's cool, I think I'll tell my brother to do that because we have people over and drink and watch movies a lot. That would make shit a lot easier...

You may have to force the clock settings in the BIOS. I don't know the model of your P4 so I can't give you much more than that.
