I recently upgraded my PC, I use it mostly for gaming. Is it worth the 5.5 grand I spent on it?
AMD athlon64 3200+ 939 socket
Asus A8N-E nforce4 mobo
2x 512MB Kingmax DDR-400
Asus Geforce FX6600 256MB PCI-Express
120GB SATA Harddrive

When it blew did fire spew out of it to burn it, cause for a company to refuse something the their waranty covers, there must have been some all-mighty burn marks!
