I'm am selling a computer that I made about 9 months ago. I want a MacBook now, and selling this would really help me. This would be my first Mac I ever own and I am very excited. My computer I'm selling I believe is pretty cheap for only 400 dollars, but if anyone feels differently please tell me. I have some parts that are used, and some parts that are brand new, and I bought then only for the purpose of selling this computer. If you would like I will include a monitor, speakers, keyboard, and a mouse for free. The monitor (HP Pavilion)is actually really old, and definatly not the best, so if you have any other monitor laying around I would recommend using that instead. But, the speakers keyboard and mouse (no name brand) are brand new, although the speaker quality isn't very good. The hard drive does not have any OS on it, I have only put it in the case and hooked it up. That is all. I have specifics that aren't very detailed at first, and if you're interested and want to know more, the detailed specifics are below. I will also at the bottom have links to pictures of this computer.

CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3000, 2.0ghz
Motherboard: MSI V Class KM88-V
RAM: 1270MB Crucial Technology
Hard Drive: 160G !BRAND NEW! Western Digital
CD/DVD/Floppy Drives: The CD drive is a Sony 52x32CD_R/RW. The DVD drive is an 8x Sony DVD+/-RW. I will include the software that came with the DVD drive. The floppy drive is pretty old. I pulled it out of a 1999 Gateway desktop, and it has it's off days. But for the most part it usually works.
Graphics card: Chiefmax ATI Radeon 9200 SE 8X 128MB with DVI and TV OUT !BRAND NEW!
Audio card: Sound Blaster Live! 5.1
Networking card: 10/100Mbps



CASE- The case is a mid-tower ATX black case with a see through side panel, LED lights on the left and right bottom front corners, and 3 LED fans, one on the side panel, and two in the back. It has two USB connectors on the front pannel, as well as a microphone and headphone jack. It has four 5.25" external drive bays, two 3.5" external drive bays, and four 3.5" internal drive bays. It holds 80mm fans. And it is has a 450W power supply.

MOTHERBOARD- Its motherboard is an MSI K8MM-V socket 754 with a VT8237R Chipset designed specifically for AMD Athlon 64 Processors. It has two 184-pin unbuffered memory slots supporting DDR266/DDR333/DDR400 DDR SDRAM up to 2GB of memory. It has an AGP 4X/8X interface for graphics cards. It comes with the original motherboard box, instructions, and the Drivers and Utilities CD-ROM and floppy disk. I have been using this mobo for about three months now and it works as if it were new.

PROCESSOR (CPU)- The CPU is an AMD Athlon 64 3000+ CPU. It runs at 2.0GHz (bus speed 1600MHz) and comes with heatsink fan. This CPU is ideal for home users, business users, and gamers alike. I have been using this CPU for about three months now and it works as if it was new.

MEMORY (RAM)- This computer has 1270MB of some of the best RAM you can buy. The 1270MB of RAM in this computer come from none other then Crutial Technology. Originally I could only afford 256MB of ram, so 256MB of RAM has been used for about three months, and the other 1GB of RAM has been used for only about two months. Both still work great, as if new.

HARD DRIVE- This computer comes with a BRAND NEW 160GB Western Digital hard drive. It runs smoothly at 7200 RPM's. This hard drive comes with CD to install Data Lifeguard Tools and Google software. It also comes with a 1-year warrenty, and a coupon inside the box to extent your warrenty to 3 years, for only $14.99. Remember, this hard drive is BRAND NEW!

CD/DVD AND FLOPPY DRIVES- The CD drive is a 52x32CD_R/RW. I have owned this for only three months, it was previously owned by a friend. The both of us take care of our computers greatly, and this drive still works as if it were new. The DVD drive is an 8x Sony DVD+/-RW. I have owned this for only a single month, and used it only once, and it works great. It comes with a CD to install the necessary software. The floppy drive is pretty old. and it has it's off days. But for the most part it usually works.

GRAPHICS CARD- ATI RADEON 9200™ SE Special Edition for System Integrators delivers a dazzling 3D experience to PC enthusiasts with the best performance in its class, optimized for today’s most compelling gaming environments and applications. Driven by an advance quad-pipe architecture, RADEON™ 9200 supports the AGP 8X standard, doubling the bandwidth of competing products and enabling more engaging characters and effects. Remember, this too is BRAND NEW!

AUDIO PCI CARD- The audio PCI card is also rather old, but still works great. It is a Sound Blaster Live! 5.1. The Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 brings cinema-quality sound to your movies, music, and games with digital 5.1 clarity. I love this sound card and think it is great for anyone doing anything with music, movies, or games.

NETWORK ADAPTER- The network adapter is an eithernet PCI card that running at 10/100mbps.

So, that's it. I accept payment through paypal and check, but all money must clear before I ship off the computer. I will pay for ground shipping, any other shipping must be paid for. PM me or post if you want to buy it, or if you have any questions. Again, if you feel the price is too low, or too high, please let me know. Thanks.
