In 2006 I built my most powerful computer to date. Starting with a CoolerMaster case and an Asus board, I added n AMD 4400 64 bit dual-core processor, 2 gigs of turbo ram, a 400 gig sata hard drive, 2 DVD rom/writer drives 12 card readers, Nvidia 7800 G-force graphics card, and 2 19" ViewSonic VA912b flat-panel monitors.

I also upgraded a lot of my graphics and Web design software. With this machine I installed WindowsXP Professional, Photoshop CS and Macromedia Studio 8 including the latest versions of Flash Pro and Dreamweaver. I will be moving this to Windows Vista and moving the XP over to RedHare1, on which I have several operating systems.
