Upgraded..Woot!~

[oldi1knoby]

Gigabyte MOBO
AMD XP 2500+
512mb ram
80 gig HD with 2 meg cache
Radeon 9600 pro *

I spent a LITTLE more than I thought I would... don't tell anyone... 900..

Hachi Machi!

 

[nw909]

S'alright

 

[Prince of China]

9600? Ohh, should've went for the 9700 at least that.
But don't worry, it's DX.9

 

[SpuD]

Is this USD we're talking about?

If you paid $900 for that, you got ripped off

 

[oldi1knoby]

Plus case, Win Xp.. thats what threw it over the top.... and a couple little things..

 

[rec]

You purchased Windows XP... Interesting concept. ;P

 

[Mr.Magnetichead]

That's not very good to be honest :/

Infact mate, youve really wasted your money.

ok My pc cost me 1600$
ShuttleX Box (w/ motherboard) (black)
Two 120 Gb hard drives,
1gig DDR ram,
Pentium4 2.58Ghz,
GeForce4 Ti 4200 (its pretty damn good for the price)
LiteOn 48x48 CDRW
ViewSonic 19" monitor (black)
ViewSonic kick ass keyboard (black)
Microsoft Wireless Light mouse
WindowsXP Pro
Plus a couple thousand dollars worth of programs from the guy who put together my pc. Photoshop 6, tons and tons of other programs i dont know how to use. 3d Studio Max, a bunch of movie editors. Sound editors. Lots of Adobe programs.
All for 1,600, about 8 or 9 months ago.

Only problem was that since I had 2 hard drives I didnt have any room for a 3 1/2 floppy drive. Not a big deal now though. And my pc is tiny.
See..look.

I agree with Rec. I've never seen anyone buy XP except for corporations/businesses, and Fender you could have saved a thousand dollars!

 

[AH_Viper]

I got win2k for £40 on a student license, good value if you ask me

 

[Mr.Magnetichead]

I got XP Pro for nought.

In fact I've never payed for windows.

 

[nsxownzme]

Congrats on your new pc man!!

 

[Bad^Hat]

Nah sounds all good to me, that's pretty much top of the range stuff, maybe a bit pricey but what's done is done so just enjoy what you got eh

No it's not, it's really really not.

 

[oldi1knoby]

It wasn't really that expensive. I only paid 200 for the MOBO and Processor combo. The rest was getting new 80mb hd with 2meg cache..100 ... case...120...Xp...100....ram..100...Video card 200... then a flopppy drive... plus taxes it came out to 900...

I'm happy. It's a College Loan well spent!
