WTB: Full System or if you can build me one come in

[Optimus Prime]

Hey this is like my 5th or 6th post here, but my friend wants to buy a good computer system but he only has a limited amount of cash. he has $400 but i am willing to throw in another $200 to help him. Anyways i am looking for a nice system with these specs or close to these specs.

Processor- 700mhz (can be a Athlon, Duron, or P3) no P2's or Celeron's. Needs to come with Cooling
Motherboard - Something decent like either a KT133, KT133A, I815E, Apollo Pro chipset
Video card - Anything that will do for playing Counterstrike or Dune .Preferrably a Geforce of any kind
Ram - Either 128 megs of Really good ram or 256megs of craptacular ram
Hard drive - Anything from 20 - 40 gigs, dont care about brand or Speed
DVD - Like a 5 - 8x will do
Sound Card - Anything better than a SB 128 PCI, like a fortissmo or SB live
Modem - Most anything will do
NIC - Dont care about brand but has to be a 10/100 BT nic
Floppy - Any kind of White color floppy

I dont need a case or CDRW cause i already have those.
I can toss in more cash but mostly i would like to stay in the 600-700 range.

If anyone has a Prebuilt system like a Micron, HP, Compaq, IBM, or Sony Computer that would be fine too but NO Packard Bell's!!!!!!!!!!!!! <-- They suck

If anyone would also be kind enough to build me a system to the specs that i want i would greatly appriciate it and i would throw in cash for Labor If you have anything that might interest me email me at ultratomus@yahoo.com.

Thanks in advance

Heheh....asking if one of us can build him a system... *&

A few months ago, I built a system for a friend that had a lot of similar components to what you're looking for. Here's a comparison:

CPU: You want a 700, She got an 800MHz Athlon
Motherboard: You want a KT133A, she had a KT133A
Video: You want Geforce level...well, she had a Xpert2000 (Rage128)
Ram: You want at least 128MB...she had 256MB Kingston PC133 CAS2
Hard Drive: You want 20GB, she had 10GB.
DVD: You want a 5x, she had a 5x
Sound card: You want SB Live....she had onboard, but it was pretty good
Modem: You want anything, she had a 56K Diamond SupraExpress PCI
NIC: She had a 3Com 3C900B - 10/100bT
Floppy: No comparison necessary

The total price for her package was (drum roll please) - $450, and that included the case and keyboard and mouse. So, I am confident that if no one else will, I can easily top your preferred specs for your budget. If you want me to take a whack at it, e-mail me (it's in my profile), and maybe we can get on the phone and talk about it some more.
