Default FS Gaming PC

Just seeing the interest out there, I put this thing together 6 months ago but I'm considering buying the new iMac.

4 gigs of memory, quad core intel Q 9400, comes with a legit working vista and serial, 1.5 TB hard drive partitioned how you like it, in the ANTEC 900 ultimate gamer case. Has an ATI HD 4800 card, very good stuff

This thing kills games. Wanting 1000 OBO.

What is the "ATI HD 4800" card? There is no such card, there is the 4800 series which is 4830, 4850, 4870 and 4870 X2. Is it one of these? That's the most important part!

What is the powersupply? What about the motherboard or cooling hardware? I'm in the right place to be needing a new PC (current PC has the PCI express slot dead).

I like everything but the case since I want something small.

OCZ 700 watt

no extra cooling installed, the case has 2 built in front fans and a huge top fan, as well as the typical rear fan. it keeps things very quiet

Which OCZ 700w model is it specifically? Is it the OCZ GameXStream? For that matter, what brand and model of harddrive?

So is the heatsink/fan combo on the CPU the stock one from Intel?

Which model of PQ5 is it? There's about 5 different models and different levels of features/performance.

P5Q SE PLUS
P5Q Deluxe
P5Q-EM
P5Q Turbo
P5Q Pro Turbo

Any idea what brand, speed, and timings the ram is?

For a big purchase, especially an entire computer; details, details, details.

P5q lgsa 775 pf5 (the box just says p5q, if you look on the asus site it has its own section)
ram is ocz pc2-6400, no idea on the timing
ocz700 gamexsteam power supply

as i said before all parts are covered under warranty until feb 2011... i actually didnt realize it was a 2 year extended warranty.

Sorry for all the questions but details are very important. There are also dozens of brands and models of ATI 4890s with different cooling solutions, their own manufacturer specific warranties, and many with different core clocks.

Do you know which one yours is?

at this point for all intents and purposes unless i can get 1000 for it i just cant sell it. realizing its under extended warranty for another year and a half and how much i spent on the parts, anything less than a grand and i may as well write someone a cheque for taking this thing
