    Computer Rebuild

    Wow! I didn't expect this much feedback! Since I already have a hard drive, video card, optical drives, and a sound card I'm bringing over to the new system, price is not a huge issue because these upgrades are not going to total like $4,000. I was going to keep my 7800 because I read that ATI...
