Ok for those who remember the saga of Oracle and for those who don't my wifey went to Iraq...Military messed up her pay for about 3 months....so i pawned my last computer.
It was a ok computer system. It wasn't fast but i built it in a all blue acrylic case, iceberg water cooled, modified start button (you had to turn it on by using a actual key), it had all sort's of modifications to it.
Anyways Now here we are and i'm using my laptop but i met a "new" friend of mine and boy oh boy does he have some hook ups. Yes he can get and i don't ask from where. He got me the following computer parts for ONLY $250. If you know about computers you'll understand how come i didn't mind letting my other one go. I priced them off of pricewatch to see the value and pricewatch is pretty cheap in prices.
HD 250gb = worth about $130
Motherboard can hold up to 3.6gbs = worth about $80
Processor: Intel prescott 3.2 gb =worth about $200
512 mbs ram = worth about $40
Now here's the kicker I also got a SAMSUNG 21" FLAT PANEL MONITOR. The monitor is valued at $800.
The only thing i have to get is a case which i'm going to get a all black acrylic case. I just thought i would share this with the other computer geeks out there since i was overly excited mainly about the monitor. Now that is a great computer for a great price!
