Long before I could join Hard Forum and about 5 years after I built my Pentium III Computer in the other thread I needed a new computer that would run Half-Life 2 and Doom 3 better, so I set out to build a Pentium 4 Computer based on the Pentium 4 3.06 GHz Northwood and might have been to ambitious to do at the time considering the cost of all the parts I wanted to build it with. It started with the Gigabyte 8KNXP, but for a while it used the Gigabyte 8IGP-1000 or whatever the model number was because the 8KNXP was dead on arrival and GIgabye was kind enough to replace it with the 8IGP-1000 or whatever it was called:
It originally used or was supposed to follow these specs and prices with the exception of the motherboard, which had to be reconsidered because the 8KNXP was DOA.
