Have a look at the Ars Technica system guides for suggestions on rolling your own PC. They discuss three general-purpose systems with an eye towards good gaming performance: the Budget Box ($600-$800), the Hot Rod (slightly higher-end at $1400-1600), and the God Box for when you hit the lottery. They don't emphasize any one OS, so check against the FreeBSD hardware compatibility list. http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/guides/2011/03/ars-system-guide-march-2011-edition.ars/ -- Karl Vogel I don't speak for the USAF or my company We are reluctant to admit that we owe our liberties to men of a type that today we hate and fear - unruly men, disturbers of the peace, men who resent and denounce what Whitman called "the insolence of elected persons" - in a word, free men. --Gerald W. Johnson, American Freedom and the Press, 1958
