How much money have you spent on computer parts? (estimate):cool2:
pprobably no more than 1300.
Ive only had one comp, possibly getting a new one for eaither $1399-$1899 depends if I get it with the monitor or not. Btw my current was approx 2grand.
About 1600 on my first system.
About 500 in upgrading the above one over time to end up wiht this computer.
About 700 for the new computer im getting for xmas...
edit: Plus 2 sets of 150$ speakers, $100 worth of keyboards and mice, $200 for printer and $250 for scanner, $200 for digital camera (sister's xmas present), router $4 :P, my current monitor $170
I thought this was one of those seedler threads.

Hmmm prolly over 5 grand in total over the years..
Btw, serriously who spent over $100,000 on thier PC?? Thats fucking insane..

I brought my PC with me to the flat, and left three networked on broadband with my wife and kids. They weren't great (Duron950, Duron1300 & XP2200+) but perfectly fine for photoshopping and surfing, which is all they ever do on them.
God knows, my computer history has gone
C64 -> Packard Bell "Family PC" -> Barebones unit -> my current PC + GF's computer
didn't touch the C64, the Packard got upgraded to the max (as much as the mobo could take) the barebones unit got customized something fierce and has since become a completely new model (my current PC) and the GF's computer took some doing.
doesn't seem like much but it's all added up, dread to think how much exactly, throw in a few CRT's too :fear:
In what currency?

I won't need to splash out on any new hard drives or a monitor and I'm too cheap to get a new case. I suppose I'm upgrading really...Quote:
