Yeah, my PC is pretty riced out. All of my fans are blue LED fans. 
h: My friend with the clear case has a couple of blue cathodes and blue LED fans as well. But performance wise, we're about the same...

Mine is a 1.8 GHz processor but I have overclocked it to 2.2 before. Don't wanna do that too often until I get an extra cooling fan.
1 GHz of DDR 2100 RAM, one of these days I will have extra money to get 2GB of DDR 2700.
128 MB DDR video card.
5.1 channel sound card

Don't go Soundblaster if you are running Linux, drivers are kinda whacked out I've had issues before.
I'd say if you are running Windows find a good 5.1 or 6.1 sound card. Get the 6.1 and spend some money and buy the Logitech 6.1 speakers, those things are freaking amazing. (Kinda expensive though...
)I'd say go to newegg.com they have a Sound blaster live 5.1 card for $33.
