What do you mean by that?

 

[geek_gal]

160 gb hard drive
512 mb ram
integrated graphics
Intel celeron D processor, 2.66 ghz
And yeah thats pretty much it. Got a free 17'' Flat panel too.
And from new egg, i orderd the 5.1, 70 watt speakers, i forget the models of them tho..

Thats pretty good being a dell, i was nearly going to go for a dell since here in aust they have been advising dell like mad on the adds and morning shows etc..But changed my mind.
I cant remember the specs and what deals tho, i'll take more note again next time.

I could build a computer cheaper than that.
I built my gf's computer for 500 bucks including the 17 inch monitor and 5.1 surround sound and shipping. For 600, I could've added water cooling

As if!!!
The comp im building now(not right.. right now but very soon)
Is costing me way way over that! (its not a dell either, AMD)
If you can then then whats the specs then smarty?

Lol... cool down arrizx. I'm a little skeptical myself, but, this guy is just barely off being a noob... give him some slack because it's ok to feel like you know everything.... it feels good... lol... until you find out that you know squat compared to some other people....

haha.. ok fine. ill give him some slack.. but that kinda computer from the sounds of it.. well all im gonna say is nuh uh, so i dont get in trouble...

I was being sarcastic because you can literally feel the tension as you read this thread and where it's going.

You guys really don't believe me, huh?

Alright... This is what I bought from Newegg.com


A Powmax black ATX Case including 400 watt PSU (holiday special) $20.00

80 Gig 8mb cache Barracuda Seagate Harddrive $55.00

AMD Sempron 2200+ $67.00

512 Megs 333mhz Offbrand ram $50.00

ASrock MATX Motherboard with 5.1 surround sound integrated sound
and integrated 10/100 LAN and integrated graphics - $40.00

Liteon DVD ROM 16x - $40.00

Liteon CD-Burner 52x - $25.00

Blue Keyboard/Mouse set - $12.00

So far -- 309.00


5.1 Surround Sound speakers - $55.00

Sony IDE Floppy Disk drive - $9.00

Zalman CNPS2500 (I believe) %100 Copper Flower Heatsink with 92MM fan - $21.00

Blue UV Reactive Dragon Fan Plate - $9.00


So far -- $403.00

Phillips 107E66 17 inch black Monitor - $117.00


That totals to $520.00

Lets add shipping... That would be about 30 bucks worth of shipping soo....
$550.00

That's a complete system... And I bought that a year ago when the Semprons first came out... If I were to build another budget PC this year, I could definately get a better system for a 100 bucks more than I paid last year.

 

[alvino]

Not bad...although the price to performance ratio isn't that much of a difference, so either way, it wouldn't really matter if Arrizx went with Dell or made your computer.

stop argueing guys... lol, season of good will and all that... (i dont wanna have to lock the thread... calm it...)
