[imported_GraFFix]

Fredo....you can get EVERYTHING there.

Click for pics...

And SyP im not sure what time yet...maybe around 10-11AM or so?

 

[mybluegtp]

damn!! might have to take a trip with you all...

 

[syP]

fredo, bestbuy is selling the 80gb 8mb cache (WD) hardrive for your xbox needs, only for $60. That is a great pirce. They would probably have it at COD also, We whould all go together. That'd be swell

 

[horist]

hmmm... i may be up for the COD computer show sunday....

I know what Items I want now, so if I can find some there cheaper than the online sites may as well

 

[Fish]

I know where to get my computer items.

 

[syP]

where do you get your stuff? I get mine from newegg.com usually free shipping

 

[Fish]

I work at CDW, but I got my computer from dell. We really dont have computer deals for end users, so I went with someone who did. I might use my employee purchase to buy components for Beckys new computer when we get a place, so she wont be on mine.

 

[horist]

i just checked out that newegg site, pretty good deals... they weren't that great on memory, or processor... same on hard drive, but the mobo was about 20 bux cheaper and the vid card was almost 50!

 

[syP]

hmm i think $74 is a great price for 80gb 8mb cache hd... where do you shop where you get better? you get free shipping?

 

[syP]

oops...

1 Maxtor 200GB SATA drive 7200RPM
1 Radeon 9800XT 256MB RAM
1 Corsair Water Cooling system (the review on toms hardware page looked really good... much better than regular heat sink and fan)
2 1GB PC3200 Memory chips

i'll pick up a case locally and I'll be set Should be a good gaming box hehehe

 

[imported_admin]

fwi.. windows will not work.. with more than 1.5 gigs of memory.. uinless you set certain switches....

 

[syP]

if you wanna wait till after xmas, i am geting a new system with 512mb pc3200. If you wanna sell me the 1gb stick and take my 512mb stick, you will be maxed out and compatible. Just let me know.

 

[horist]

Thanks for the heads up... I'll look into what I have to do to make windows see the full 2 gigs

also got this case for it

w/a 500 watt power supply

 

[imported_admin]

I would recommend the enermax power supply... cleaner power.. over the 500watter... nice case though.. real nice

 

[syP]

Lol, im getting a Xtherlamaltake case just like that but better.

 

[horist]

damn, i didn't realize that case was the same brand! I guess subconsciously that case you posted really made an impression on me heh

 

[syP]
