what is the most expensive part of your computer?

[scorpmatt]

er, $165 for mobo (asus a7v333), cpu (athlon 2100+), memory (1GB Corsair PC2700), and vid card (Radeon 9500 128MB).

hard drives cost ~120 (40GB and 80GB)

so what do I post as the most expensive?

well, drive array would count all of the drives as one cost, even if not purchased at the same time and even if they aren't raided or something.

i intentionally did that otherwise damn near everyone would put videocard. some of us have gobs of space (TB+)

120 is about how much I paid for both drives....
