What do you think of the specs and Pics....

looks nice but is well over priced.

So you built it to sell on ebay?

Dunno how much you get parts for but I just priced the cpu, hd, ram, graphics, mobo and dvd for £438 ($875) but I know you guys get bits a lot cheaper than we do. Having said that the ram you used is £160 here for 1gb, I would'nt go for that, don't see the point when you can get crucial 3200 for £30 a stick.
Also the hd I priced the highest range wd at £65 which you could get a 160gb segate or wd for nearly that.
But that was just out of interest :)

I like teh blue :01:

@JonnoBloCool - your last sentence contradicts all the noob software problems you have posted in the lounge
you do understand that harware and software relate?

What software problems? :huh: when?
I posted a weird bit comet thing last week but thats about it........unless I've forgotten :unsure:

Jonno :cool:

how longliving your gratitude is :cry:

It didn't cost me 800 somthing to build it. Your Calculations are incorrect it was cheaper then that. And yes I built my computer to sell it. Reason being, I am going to a tech school college soon and I need some cash. I probably did over proce the computer but it's my first time and I wanted to see how it would work out.

Kinda bright?

Overall, It'd put up a nice fight at the LAN parties... I'd love to pay under "$650" for that ...but I know it's gonna skyrocket in the end. Just like those ATI Video cards... I bid $150, and the damn thing reaches $400...WHICH is higher than the retail price *fart* *fart*.

First one ? Not bad at all , I would of posted in Hardware world for some constructive criticism for your next one . Mabye some links to better prices on hardware for example . :)

Whats this? I helped build that computer and you never mentioned my efforts... :cry:

jk dude


Yeah It looks good up close...I think its pretty good for it being his first computer. Course I did help solve some "minor" roadblocks in its construction. :shifty:

I'm sure all the Microsoft Anti-Piracy thugs had a jolly laugh about this before they set out for your house.

BTW, you are aware that even the lowliest $250 Dell comes with an OS installed?

B. We also make sure to buy parts that are compatible with one another instead of the cheapest thing we can find.

C. All of our systems are built here in the United States

"All of our systems" = this particular one, right?
