Just bought me a new computer for my birthday gift to myself.

E8500 (YAY!) @ Core 2 Duo @ 3.16GHz
4GB of RAM
2TB of HD Space :D(Yeah, 2 Freakin Terabytes, I do some slideshow work, so pictures + movies = huge spaces)
Nvidia GEForce Crap 7300SE (I need a new card -_-)
Microsoft XP SP3 / Microsoft Vista Ultimate / MAC Leopard (Tri-Boot :D)

Mostly use my XP SP3 with my Vista skins...
Not such a hog ^_^

I need:
A new keyboard
A new power-supply
Some more fans :D (Just for show ;))

If I were to build a computer out of used parts from guys' on here old computers, do you think it would work?

If I could have 2-2.4ghz processor and 1gb+ of ram that would be all I need. I really don't car about anything else. Heck, if it would work I could use parts from my current Dell POS 4300.

Would anyone sell me some parts?

[lucias]

I am currently running a:
CoolerMaster 830 Stacker Case
Intel E8400 CPU
4GB GSkill 1066 RAM
Asus Maximus Formula Motherboard
2 750GB running a raid - I have a pair if TB hard drives i might swap those out with..
Raedon HD 4870 1GB Video Card
Dell 24" and 20" Monitor

Where do you find out what your buss's are?

[rawfuls]

You can search up the model, and it should be around there.

A little update on my computer:

Intel C2D E4500 at 2.5GHz stock cooler
EVGA 650i Ultra MB
Going to have an ATI HD 4830 512MB DDR3 very shortly
460 watt power supply
500GB Seagate
750GB Seagate
Random DVD drive lol
4GB DDR2 800 RAM


My friend's uncle just recently went all out and bought him a computer that I'm now very jealous of:

Core 2 Quad Q9650 at 3.6GHz WATER COOLED
Rampage Extreme motherboard
ATI 4870 video card WATER COOLED (lol he needs two 4870 X2's )
4GB DDR3 1600 RAM
FOUR 750GB HARD DRIVES in RAID 10 (actually 3 and a 1TB drive. one of the 750's was giving him trouble, so he's loaned it to me. Works great for me lol )
Gigantic case with a million fans on it that are pointless because of the water cooling, but sure look darn cool.
He couldn't get XP on it, so he's using Vista 64 right now. (lol he says that his room is very warm if he leaves it on all night .)

Brijar!!!

What do you play?

[Unsullied_Spy]

C2Q Q6600
4GB G. Skill DDR2 800
ABIT IP35 Pro
MSI 8800GT
Lite-On DVD +/- RW (got a litescribe laying around, just haven't put it in yet)
Thermaltake Toughpower 700W
WD740GD (10K RPM Raptor, OS drive), WD 500GB and Samsung 400GB for storage.
Acer AL1916W
Logitech MX510
Dell keyboard from ~2001

Built on a budget but it runs everything I've thrown at it with all the eye candy cranked @ 1440x900 so it'll do for another year or two until it's time for a new one.




EDIT: Forgot to mention I'm running Vista Home Premium, graphics card is running @ 715/1034, CPU @ ~2.7GHz and never gets turned off or rebooted. Very reliable no matter what I put it through.

C'Mon only 2.7? Get that atleast up to 3.2. Is it a B3 or a G0?
