Pentium 4 Gateway Retro PC Re/Build: Cap Kits, Noctua Fans & the Sony GDM-C520!

I bought this PC from a Gateway Store in Late 2002. It was my college PC. It has been in storage for over a decade. It need to be recapped and then it will be rebuilt and tested with one of the best Sony Trinitron CRTs ever made, The GDM-C520 Color Monitor!
