Default FS Mostly complete computer. Also, nice case, 2 GOOD vid cards.

Ok so I had this machine, Its a great little box that just needs a video card to be complete. If you give it a decent video card, it WILL run games somewhat well. I ran this machine with a larger hard drive and an X300SE ($39 video card at discount electronics, cheaper on ebay) and it ran GTR, GT Legends and Nascar SIMRACING @1024x768 pretty well. Keep in mind this was on a low end video card.


Here are the specs.


Its a black mid tower case, nothing special, but not bad looking, I RAAMAT'd a lot of the inside to make it quieter. Has USB ports on the front, which is great.
ECS motherboard, socket 754 PCI-Express. I replaced the chipset fan with a MUCH quieter and larger one from Coolermaster. I used Arctic Silver 5 thermal paste on both the chipset and the CPU. It has built in Gigabit ethernet, which is AWESOME and works very well. Despite some peoples experiences with ECS, this board has never let me down and is rock solid. I have the book and the driver CD to go with it. Hell I have the original box the MB came in.
AMD Sempron 3100+ -- Little known fact about this processor, its FASTER than the A64 2800+ in games and benchmarks.
Thermaltake HS/Fan for the proc. Keeps it VERY cool and is really quiet.
Soundblaster Live PCI sound card. 5.1 surround. Better than onboard sound by a longshot. Its a Dell OEM card, so I will dig up the drivers and put them on a disk for you.
40GB hard drive Small I know, but its what I had sitting around. It works well though
DVD/CD drive Not a burner. Also a dell oem drive.
512mb PC3200 DDR ram. 2 sticks of 256.

No video card installed. No floppy drive installed. No OS but thats easily fixed for free (Im not going to do that for you, its easy enough for you to find on your own)

This machine has USB ports just overflowing out of it. Seriously, it has like 8 USB ports. (6 on back, 2 on front)

I have zero idea what to ask for this. $175 cash picked up/delivered in reasonable distance as it sits???? I have the box the case came in, so I COULD ship it, but I gotta think shipping would be like 35 bucks for something this large and heavy.
I do take paypal, and I do like people that throw a couple bucks extra in to help me with the fees. Its not mandatory, but if you could spare a couple bucks with it

Here are the ways this machine could go.


I add an old PCI video card I have laying around, its complete, you run it as cheap machine/fileserver/whatever.
You buy a low end PCI express card, use it as a regular computer, maybe a couple LIGHT games.
You buy more ram, and a good video card and you have a capable budget gaming machine.


So why am I doing this? I want a new video card for my main gaming machine. Its $380 bucks for this card. I need $$$.

I will be adding more to this in a bit.
I will be selling my
Lian-Li PC65B case (NICE case) with black light cold cathodes and a window
and 2 Geforce 7800GT PCI-express video cards.

Here are pics of the first machine

I will be selling both at once. I dont want to go weeks without SLI while I wait for the other to sell. I need about 500 bucks total to buy the new case and 8800GTS at the same time, so I need to sell this comp first, then my case/vid cards (I want to sell the case and vid cards less than a week apart if at all possible.)

I will list the case/vid cards here and on HardOCP when I do, so it should all work out

They will be for sale shortly (maybe a few days?) after I sell this machine

No, they wont sell until this other machine sells. I wont sell them until I will have the money for the new card and case when they sell(so 250-300 total before I sell them, I am figuring on selling them for 125 each)
