Serious? Mouse and keyboard are better for MP games rather than a game pad? And that's due to 'auto-aim' features of a gamepad? So, any PS2 or X360 controller will work, with adapters and downloaded drivers, but you sacrifice the detailed control you get w/ a keyboard? For Myth Wars...

Thanks for the suggestions. I like the idea of getting a stock 2.66 box and upgrading the graphics card myself. Regardless of vendor, wouldn't I need a beefier power supply than stock, especially if I were looking at a 8600 card? Thanks
