Just ordered the parts for my new computer.....

Post by NiteHawk » Fri Sep 29, 2006 12:58 am

So i finally decided to build a new computer since this POS P4 just aint cutting it anymore...here's the specs!

Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 (dual core 2.13GHz) Processor
Dual Channel (2x 1GB) Corsair DDR2 800 Memory
XFX GeForce 7900GT 256MB Video Card
2x PLEXTOR 16X DVD±R SATA DVD Burner
2x Seagate 320GB 16MB Cache SATA2 Hard Drives
CoolMax 700W Modular Power Supply (you choose what wires you want plugged in)
GIGABYTE GA-965P-DS3 Socket T (LGA 775) Intel P965 Express ATX Intel Motherboard
ZALMAN CNPS9500 AT 2 Ball CPU Cooling Fan/Heatsink
Silverstone FP34-B USB 2.0 Card Reader
Kingston Elite Pro 1GB Secure Digital (SD) Flash Media
SCEPTRE X20G-Naga III Black 20.1" 8ms Widescreen HD Ready LCD Monitor

Logitech G15 2-Tone USB Wired Standard Keyboard
Logitech G5 Laser 931376-0403 2-Tone 6 Buttons 1x Wheel USB Laser Mouse (this mouse is absolutly SICK!)
then i got normal stuff like SATA cables, and little extras like that.....

Credit Cards are a dangerous, yet lovely tool...6 months no payments...thats the stuff right there!

Very nice man, that is going to be one killer system right there! One of my buddies just picked up a new Duo chip a few weeks ago and he loves it. Man, I used to be all over upgrading my computer, did it probably once a year or more but now... man, I'm still running with a XP2500+ thats going on about 4 years old :( Damn car modding stepped in a took all my money away for the past few years :lol: It was either $2,000 to buy parts for a computer, or $2,000 for wheels...hmmm... Wheels :D

lol, sorry, my buddy owns a company selling computer parts and stuff, and the place i bought from is technically one of his competitors, so out of respect for my buddy, i will not be disclosing where i purchased from or where i got the 6 months no payments deal, lol

but if anyone needs computer parts, electronics in general, or a custom built computer system, i highly recommend going to www.mdofpc.com/onlinestore/ he has great prices and great service. just tell them Matt send you :)
