Well, not new.. but I got a free HP Pavilion a800n just yesterday. It has an ASUS MoBo, AGP graphics, 160GB HDD and an AMD Athlon XP 3200+. Not too great, but a lot better than my current 1.24GHz XP.
Plans:
Thermaltake Volcano 10 Heatsink :thumbup: only twelve dolla!-

Sapphire ATi Radeon HD3650-

74GB Western Digital Raptor HDD-
from a friend
20" LCD Monitor-
I'll find one when the time comes lol that's an expense that will last me longer than the computer
Evercool PCI Fan + Thermaltake 90MM Case fan

I have 2x1GB sticks of Gskill DDR PC3200 RAM-
from my current computer that can go right in along with a better/newer 350w PSU.
It's not gonna be the best rig, but it won't be too bad. I'll be able to play AVA, CSS, Oblivion, and a few other games. I'll be able to make better montages and record faster. Lets just say it's like polishing a turd, and trust.. me it can be done. Mythbusters did it!
