Default [Project] Mother In Law (COMPLETE)

Ok guys I have started to get some parts for my Mother In Laws new rig. I say this because she has been on this dated Gateway for quite some time now. Here are the specs that she has been using since the last decade, yes I said decade.

AMD Athlon 600mhz slot A CPU
384mb of PC100
200w PSU
Geforce 2 MX 64mb AGP
9gb HD
WinXP SP2 with no updates

I think the board was giving her issues, which is why she just "left it on all the time". This leads me to believe she had other issues that she didn't know about. So I thought it was about time for a huge upgrade. So I was looking at the case, and thought, mmmm this is not such a bad case after all, and its ATX! I just need to dremel out the IO panel and the PSU panel to accommedate needed hardware.

Here is the new hardware going into it:

Gigabyte P35-DS3R
Intel E4400
XIGMATEK HDT-D1284
2x1gb OCZ DDR2-800
Palit 8600GTS 512mb
80gb IDE WD HD
DVD+-RW
OCZ StealthXStream OCZ500SXS 500W
WinXP SP3


So I bring to you all, Project: Mother In Law!

Well she has the matching keyboard/monitor. So if I take those and wipe them off, it will all match pretty good!

That is more computing power than she will ever need. She should be set for quite a while.

Yeah it is. I was gonna set her up with a X2 and a mATX mobo with the 8100 mGPU. But this comes to about the same price, with much more hp!

You may want to open up a good airflow route in the front of the case and pop in a fan or 2. Drill, baby, drill!
