"Elimin8r of TeamArea51 gets away with inexpensive hardware for his Quake 3 Arena servers. 'I don't work for a hardware company, so my servers are bought or donated. I host a [Quake 3 Arena capture the flag] server with a 24 max total player limit on a 2.0 GHz Pentium 4 with 512 MB of Corsair [memory].'"

Yeah, that's about where I'm at too. I love my corsair memory chips =) The benefits of building your own comp are great, ever since the day I started building comps, I don't think I'll ever buy one again.

That was a pretty good article Nathan.
