CPU: Athlon Thoroughbred 1.5GHz
GPU: PNY nVidia GeForce 4200ti
Memory: 2GB SuperTalent PC3200
Mobo: Jetway V400DBL
Optical Drives: Lite On DVD-RW
HDD: Maxtor 20GB and WD Caviar 200GB
PSU: Ultra X-Connect 500W (I know that's overkill. I believe in under-stressing things.)
Case: Antec Super LanBoy
I will post pics soon. This is a pretty sweet Retro Rig. It has a big window for looking at all the pretty colours inside. I have those sweet, rounded, glowy IDE cables that Thermaltake used to sell. There was not much in the way of wiring management in cases in 2002-2004, but the Ultra X-Connect looks freakin' amazing in there.
This machine is an attempt to resurrect my old Athlon rig that in built in 2002 and added on to over the following 2-3 years. This machine also features a lot of cosmetic parts that I didn't originally buy, but wanted, like the Ultra PSU. When I first saw the Ultra X-Connect, I think I drooling over a 400W model, but I couldn't find that when I was buying. There's nothing wrong with extra power.
My "main" machine is a Dell Inspiron 530s with a Radeon HD 7770. Cosmetically, there isn't a lot I can do for it, besides replace the white sidepanels with black ones. I am not sure I'll casemod it. I love looking at parts, and I added copper heatspreaders to the memory, but I'm just not really excited about how the inside looks. Maybe I'll build it inside a RaidMax case I found. :P
This baby runs Skyrim in Ultra-High, at 60FPS. That's all I need.
Thanks for getting back to me. I have been a fan of Thermalright stuff for a long time. Everything I have bought has been rock solid for years.

Nothing wrong with this build except the part about- Motherboard: pulled an LGA 775 board from a dell inspiron
That motherboard has got to go. If I had a spare 775 laying around I would send it to you asap just to see you destroy that Dell with a hammer.
Nice build overall and thanks for sharing it with us.

Excuse the horrible iphone pic on instagram. http://instagram.com/p/ns1FJqqzBp/
Could always go ssd. Or maybe an r9 270? You'd have to be more specific about your budget and what you want to improve on.
