I'm gonna try to sell my pc (with 17" screen) for about 200$ before going to England.
So i'm guessing we have about the same specs: 2ghz? 348mb DDR ram?, ATI Radeon 128mb grphcard?, 80gb diskspace?

by **Cameron** on Sun May 08, 2005 10:42 am

Jeez filip, that's better than my computer... I hope it's worth more than 175$...

I'm gonna guess
P3 800mhz or celeron 600mhz
128 mb RAM
10 gb Hard Drive

Monitorless, I'm assuming.

Probably running windows 3.0, Using a one button mouse, a high capacity harddrive with 100mb of space, one of those new 80 key keyboards. 13# black and white screen. 4mb graphics card.

:mrgreen:

Well I just got a 2.93 GHz Celeron, 512mb DDR RAM, and a 80gb HD for about $500 so proportinally:

1.0255 GHz, 179.2 mb RAM, 28 gb HD

by **Username123** on Sun May 08, 2005 4:23 pm

Well the monitor is not included, the cpu came with the keyboard, mouse, HD, Video Card, RAM, and everything else that comes with the PC. I will see till tomorow if anyone gets it right. Then i will tell the specs.

PS. 175$CDN so thats almost 150$ American.

by **idiot** on Sun May 08, 2005 6:25 pm

Duron 900mhz
some taiwanese brand motherboard
128mb ram
20gb hd
onboard sound card
onboard video card

i had a comp like that 2 or 3 years ago for $375 CAD........ but it fried itself one day

good luck with your $175 comp :wink:

Does this mean you'll post less?

by **Username123** on Mon May 09, 2005 12:07 am

Yes thats waht it means.

by **Cameron** on Mon May 09, 2005 2:21 am

Umm wisdow, where the hell did you find this computer? I'm looking at used like 1ghz computers for like 300$... I would definitely pay 175$ for that good a computer...

by **Filip** on Mon May 09, 2005 2:53 am

1ghz pc for 300$ muahah!
I wouldn't give shit for a 1ghz pc.

by **Cameron** on Mon May 09, 2005 2:55 am

But that's normal for canadian prices...

by **Filip** on Mon May 09, 2005 4:03 am

Then canandian prices are very high then. You can barely sell a 1ghz pc here, we threw away my fathers old PC which was a AMD 700mhz.

If we lived in the same country I could've sold you mine

by **Cameron** on Mon May 09, 2005 7:23 am

LOL man, you should never throw out a computer because they can all be used for something, infact my secondary internet computer is a p2 350mhz...

www.thetrailingedge.ca it's a local store where they sell used compys, you can see what some of the usual prices are like here, and why I'm so surprised that Wisdom got that for 175$.

Well we didn't have any use for that pc, nothing was working properly on the fucker anyways.

Well, the only good part on Wisdom's PC is the processor and the hardrive, but it's very cheap (y)

Next time I buy myself a new pc I'm gonna buy one with a big hardrive and a lot of RAM, the rest can suck since I'm only plan to use my next PC for Internet, music, pictures & movies (& maybe some cyberface makin').

by **Username123** on Mon May 09, 2005 9:03 am

My dad gets a discount every year from his company. This year he chose to get the computer. I wanted a 3.0Ghz P4 but it was not available at that time. But if it was i could have got it for around 290-310$ depending on what type of CPU (Compaq, Dell or w/e)

by **Cameron** on Mon May 09, 2005 12:14 pm

Ahh, OK, that clears it up.

Damn man, you are lucky!

by **COOLmac©** on Mon May 09, 2005 12:14 pm

this is good news for you....
now try to avoid spyware/adware/worm infested sites in the near future so you can have no more problems

by **Username123** on Mon May 09, 2005 12:19 pm

Yea i have to stop going on sites like gamecopyworld.com and seriall.com

by **cyanide** on Mon May 09, 2005 12:35 pm

My friend built his computer using custom parts, and he managed to get a 3 GHz, 2 GB RAM, and 200 GB hard drive, a new case and motherboard all for $600, without monitor and used a previously bought graphics card.

by **Username123** on Mon May 09, 2005 12:42 pm

Two of my friends made thier own computers and both were over 1000$. One of them has a 3.2Ghz 1GB Ram, 200GB HD, 256 Vid Card, and he got it for 1800$

by **Cameron** on Mon May 09, 2005 12:56 pm

Right now I'd like a computer like that, but I have no funds and this computer (the family one) really suffices. If I had a job though I might like to build a mini-itx computer for internet and homework and stuff.. check them out, they're cool because theyre small and silent. Specs aren't as good but you can run linux or whatever on them.

I have so many old computers! p2350mhz, celeron 500mhz, p1166mhz, 486dx (which I just got to run with only a keyboard, psu, motherboard, and graphics card, no case or anything and I had to guess where everything plugged lol, the parts were sitting in a box). Oh and I may get a p2400mhz laptop hopefully. (all this has been for free btw)

Wish I could get a 2.4ghz computer for 175$ tho!
