Did we go to the same LAN parties?

  Heh, if you were in the PNW it's possible. In that era there definitely were killer deals that just spread like wildfire among people who knew. And ABit built their brand catering to overclockers/tweakers, much to the annoyance of Intel lol. There was also that Hitachi 19" CRT that could do 1600x1200 rock solid, and had a nicer than most shadow mask CRT. A big lot of those went up for sale super cheap on ubid or some site like that and we all found out about it through Something Awful and similar forums. We lugged those 60 lb CRTs to our small dozen person group every other weekend, along with full size ATX towers as you did. That combo with the Voodoo2 SLI was the king rig for quite some time. I was one of the heretics that went from a Voodoo1 to a Riva TNT2 because I was also fooling around with 3d animation apps, and the TNT2 could at least try to make those go.
