I use an Aptiva AMD K6 500, with 128M of Ram (8M of which goes toward Video as well), A 16M Blaster Banshee Video 3DFX Video Card, a SoundBlaster Live Gamerx sound card with Digital 4 way speaker system and Sub. 10Gig HDD and a 52X CD ROM, I have a USB HUB plugged into my system to run my periferals, 100M Zip Drive, Cable Modem, Microsoft Optical Mouse, HP CD Burner, and a 17" IBM monitor. This summer i will be upgrading the Video card to a Voodoo 3 and maybe getting two 128M RAM chips, to bring my system up to 256M of RAM
