I was wondering what kind of mac this might fetch, and I'm willing to add some cash if I like the deal:

- AMD Athlon XP 1700+ (.13 micron thouroughbred C)
- Zalman Copper Heatsink (flower design) - 20 db (silent)
- 512 MB DDR 266 Mhz RAM
- Seagate Barracuda 80 GB HD (at 25db its the quietest HD available)
- nVidia GeForce FX 5200 (has heatsink, no noise)
- 3 port FireWire PCI card
- 2 Free PCI slots
- 18 db 300 watt power supply
- Optical Drive Options of: 48x CD-RW and/or DVD-ROM drive
- Aluminum Case

This computer is extremely quiet; I cannot hear it at more than a few feet away. The all copper heatsink leads itself to overclocking. The heatsink fan speed is adjustable.

The processor can be upgraded to the AMD Athlon XP 2400+ without any bottlenecks. Another 512 MB of ram can be added.

Looking for:
G4 PowerMac (I can add cash)
G4 iMac (I can add cash)
G4 Cube (I can add cash)

Thanks.

Which case? Which PSU? Which optical drives? Which rev. CPU? Has it been OC'd? Retail or OEM CPU/HDD? How many dimms?

Pics?

I'm not interested, but these are the basics when posting a PC FS.
