what a horrid case.

Shipping?

Shipping I want to try to keep under $50, but in you leave in Central Florida, feel free to just pick it up after you have bought it.

Hah, Try southern Ontario. I'm a Canuck.

I'll be in G'ville next week :em321:

grr

I'm in Clermont, if you want it, it's yours.

I actually just spent $150 or so on upgrade for my own rig, don't really need a second machine.

CeleronD, heck no.

Er... no.


That is also a no.



I know some audiophiles who'd have a bone to pick with you on that one but I wouldn't notice any difference, over a better card.




Like play FEAR? :p You sound like a salesman. Still a really nice deal for 500$ though. Escpially with Windows included in the deal.

One question: Will it run Oblivion? I'm guessing no.

1. Steal computer
2. Run away
3. ???
4. Profit.

500$ US? No way man i can get a new comp for that!

I'm tempted to buy this and then upgrade from there...but no, I'll build my own.

For someone who comes from Hardforum where threadcrapping is a bannable offense in FS/FT threads, you really haven't learned much.

that's a great deal, and I'd buy it if I had the cash

In some forums, you'd get banned for selling stuff. I'm not thread crapping, I'm just observing that his post bore a rather amusing resemblance to what a salesman might say. It's still a good deal, but this being a discussion forum, I'm discussing what he's selling. If he wants a strict FS/T thread, he should use an FS/T forum.


BTW, what was that stuff in the last harware thread about Nvidia having superior image quality? There was something else too, but I don't remember what it was. I wish I had had time to properly reply to it.






Yeah, with a brand new uber-1337 Intel Extreme integrated graphics chip! It might even play solitare if you turn the settings down a bit.



Actually the 9600 is supported, but you'd be played with really low settings.

1) Only if it was in the policy, which it isn't. I've never been to said forums, also. They're usually ones that don't have a separate forum labelled "General Discussion".
2) It's just common courtesy not to threadcrap. Seriously.
3) Are you actually asking me to give you material so you can start an argument? ****ing christ. Seriously.

I'd use logic, but I'm too lazy so I'll do this:

But really, we're killing his thread, why don't we take it to PMs?

If you guys don't stop this, I wonder how long it'll be until it's locked..


We need to have a gambling forum the Obi, Yoshi, and the other debaters don't know about, and take bets on how long threads will last until locking.

Yeah, but your 13 and obviously less mature than us. n00b. :p


/irony

If yoshi and obi dont knock it off, they're both headed for banland.

actually it could handle oblivion... just won't look like the screenshots that are out there

the minimum requirements for the game

that computer is in no way high end.

sorry.

I used my uber Jedi scenes to sense this and immediately knocked it off. Why do my casually discussions lead to heated arguments before I know it? Maybe I'm bit more apathetic or something. Sigh... Has there ever been an actual discussion on computer hardware?

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...

price is way too high for a computer with those specifications, even excluding the fact that it's old, used hardware.

sorry, but you're going to have to try harder.

Fixed.

Seriously though, who are you trying to fool? That computer is low-end. 500$ is a fair price for it, but you're spewing more bull**** than a salesman. This is the setup I used to have, and it hasn't cut it for over a year. Most games I could run at no more than 1024x769 with a lot of features off. Come on man. At least be a little honest and informative. The way you're boasting it, someone who knows more or less anything about computers could expect to run Quake 4 maxed out. Sheesh.

Exactly what I'm trying to say. It was either some sort of joke or he just didn't know.\



I don't know, if you spec it out w/windows... Someone want to spec it out on new egg?

Who the **** pays for Windows?

People who don't make the thing cost more for honest people?

EDIT: Ohhh, I predict a 5 page flame war on piracy.

No, but why pay for Windows when you can run Linux?

LINUX ZEALOT ZING

It might not be "High-end" to the hardcore gamers, but they no that. Any smart gamer knows it's not an Alienware. But for a "budget PC" it's pretty good. I was playing HL2 online on 1024 x 768, full detail, trilinear, and 4x antilising, and got about 40 fps. That's good for an economy class PC. For most people, that is high-end. I know a lot of people that woud love to get a gaming PC for a low price.

seriously, being able to run HL2 @ 1024x768 at any settings is really nothing to brag about...

Eh, you could build a new computer with better specs for $500 if you wanted to. Try dropping the price a bit.

You obviously don't know what the high-end classification involves. Stop trying to sell now, you fail.

And its not a gaming PC. It never was high-end. Even when it came out, it was mid-ranged. Celerons are one of the worste kinds of processors, the Radeon 9600 XT (i'm guessing its the 128mb variant, which you don't bother to specify, which is, in that generation of cards, what makes or breaks the bloody card) while it was good at the time, was outdated fast enough. The fact that most recent games you'll run at *most* medium or low settings, right there, tells you its not high-end. Its hardly a budget pc either. If someone smart sits down with 500$, they can get a MUCH better grade PC than that.

And you don't even have a gig of ram on that thing.

I said earlier that 500$ was decent because its already built, you supply windows, and someone who wants a computer to browse the internet, listen to music, run microsoft office, or play older games, it'll be fine. But then I didn't realize that was american money. Now I find its overpriced. I sold a similar rig, except I had an AMD instead of a Celeron, and 1.5GB Ram, and a 120GB hard drive for 450$ CANADIAN.

*shrugs*



IF that is the case, then why are you trying to sell over the lol! internet?

Newegg can ship that for around $35, which I'm sure is less then you could ship yours for, and this machine blows yours out of the water.

Sorry man.

Because I can actually run half my **** on windows?

Well, you didn't include Windows in the price, which he does, but still, the price should come down just a tad.



Alienware = crap. No real enthusiest owns an Alienware.
