My system owns all. Last time I read a review in some magazine about new Nvidia Geforce cards using SLI technology. The funny thing was they also talked about the history if that technology, and how 3FX voodoo was the first to use this kind of technology.

A really big part of the complete review was just to explain what the hell the company 3FX was and what happened to them. So I think My Pc is kind of special with a real 3FX Voodoo 5500 PCI.

Not to mention my windows is installed on a 1GB hard disk I stole from an old 486, because my 20 GB HD has become unreliable. for the Rest it's a p3 450 with 320 mbRam.

I doubt that, Since the AMD 64 is x86 backwards compatible
However Drivers,OS are just starting up for the 64 Hype.
Meaning running a 64bit OS might still be buggy.
And running Renegade on a 64bit os doubt it will work.
But the hardwareside shouldnt be a problem.

since the 50 watt power supply isnt usually enough to power this bad boy, I have it hooked up to a gas generator in my room to give it a little more juice.

You should've gotten a K8N Neo 2 Platinum and a socket 939 3200+ from http://www.monarchcomputer.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=M&Product_Code=80152&Category_Code=AMDC&pwselect=110228,120422,130122
They set everything up for you and update the BIOS for the Winchester core and then send it off. I'll be ordering from there in 2 weeks

Im getting that same mobo,with an AMD 64 fx-55

My only question is will I still be able to run all my applications on it,such as Fruity Loops,3ds max...etc?

I had read that there is "special code" for intel processors to run....This was a forum post I read somewhere and Im not sure how true it is.

I'm not buying anything from the US because of the fucking duty taxes.

Get this: You order a $20 T-Shirt from Cafepress and you have to pay an extra $40 once you get the package. Confused
