I didn’t mention this sooner, so I’ll do it now. Out in Iraq, I was able to get a few parts by various people. After sending it home, buying a 550W power supply, and doing a little alterations I now have a Pentium 4 2.8GHz processor with 512 MB 333mhz DDR memory. I also purchased through good ole newegg a new video card. (I forgot to mention that this was a valintines gift from my wife… doh!)

It’s a eVGA nVIDIA GeForce 6800GT Video Card (256MB GDDR3, 256-Bit, DVI/TV-Out, 8X AGP).

I can’t wait! Only problem is that my motherboard is only 4X. (While the card will support 4x, it means it won’t run as fast as it could.)

You can check out some pretty stats at Toms Hardware.. It’s so nice.. *purrs*

And it’ll be here soon! Yay!
