OK!

So, i want the new quad core penryn that is coming out and i'm thinking that there is a good possibility that someone would be interested in my older computer so that i wouldn't have to put in my closet.

I will be posting the specs on it shortly, and i feel that my asking price of ~ $400.00 + shipping is more than fair. I assure you that if you were to go and try to purchase a computer now for this price you will not get nearly the speed/performance.

Please only serious inquiries, Once i get back home i will take pictures and post them for all to see.

Also note that this will come stripped clean and a fresh copy of Windows XP will be on here.

Would appreciate if you gave all the spec's;

may know a guy that would be really interested.

For all you guys that have crappy CZ computers (looking at you PJ), this will play cz on any setting at more than full fps, should also play source at more than reasonable settings no problem. Has played COD4 at medium settings with no problems. It is not a oblivion/farcry powerhouse, but will get the job done for a great price. I built this computer, so I should know. Also it will come with XP pro (150 bucks), office 2003 pro (350 bucks), disk keeper pro, Nero ultimate edition, and any other goodies I have for free.

I would recommend throwing a 3rd drive in there for storage, and keeping crap like music and movies off the main C drives so that it stays fast, if someone throws in an extra 30-40 bucks or so I will dig up a 200gb or so drive, load it down with movies or music (we have 80+gb of each), and install it before it ships out.

^Haha, awesome way to put it.

Go for it, was going ask my cousin - but I'm pretty sure he wants him and I to build one just for expirance-wise, so I didn't think he would have come through regardless.

I need a new pc. Mine doesn't get even close to max fps. Tired of PC-based lag spikes, and bad lag when looking through smokes.

Time for a decent PC, and that's a perfect price for me.
