Here are the specifications for my first custom PC.

A8n-SLI Deluxe MoBo
AMD 64 3000+ Retail
Western Digital 250 MB Special Edition Hard Drive
Corsair 2 x 512 MB RAM (1GB)
Geforce NX6600 256 MB Video card
Lite-On 16x Couble Layer DVD-RW
X-Superalien Case w/ 500 watt power supply
Can anyone give me a rating on my system? Maybe tell me how much I could re-sell this puppy for in the future?

Very nice computer man...i dont know how much you could sell it for, depends the time but if you found the right buyer who doesnt want to build one himself your looking over 800 easily

Thanks for the help! It costed me roughly 950 to buy each part.

You should have gotten a 6600GT video card, but otherwise very nice system, good ram and everything looks nice.

I figured the 256 was better than the 128 thats why I got the NX6600....it was a little more expensive like 25 bucks for twice the ram.

Memory makes little difference in graphics cards.

I agree... the 6600s are good but the extra $50 - $60 more for the GT version is absolutely worth it. Believe it or not, your 6600 with 256MB probably doesn't perform as well as a 6600GT with 128MB . Plus, later on you can SLi another 6600GT for uber GPU processing , rather than spend $400+ for a "top-of-the-line" video card later (which I estimate to perform about the same as the Dual 6600GTs). Otherwise, you got yourself a quality PC, my friend.

non-sequitur.... you think I used enough smileys in this post? LOL

It depends on the person that you sell it to but you could make $200-$300 profit pretty easy.

In the future, that is really hard to say.... If you just built it now, you could make the $200-$300 profit now. Someone that doesnt know how to build a pc and is looking for a good overall rig, you could sell it.
