The sale is a sale that my mother can't say no. Her "new" Sempron 3000+ S754 is running slow...slower than her old AMD Athlon XP 2600+. So, we have a sale, consisting of a refurbished PC, wich is a HP a6000n AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ for only 250 bucks. That's right! 250 bucks for a loaded system.
Well, I decided I will also try to pick one up. The sale starts tommorow at 10am...so...I'll try to be there before
I'll see what Branded vs clone does.
The specs are as follows:
ASUS M2N68-LA
1GB DDRII (on mine, I'm throwing one more.)
250GB SATAII
Geforce 6150 (On mine, I'm throwing in my 8500GT)
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ (My other is an Athlon 64 4000+)
15-in-1 card reader
DVD Burner with Lightscribe
Vista Home Premuim (Oh well...250 is loaded well)
This thing outperforms my build and mine costed me around 400...wow!
The only thing is that it's refurbished, there's a 200 limit per MTL wide...so I don't know how much are in a shop...so I better hurry.
If all goes well, we have two complete PC to bring home...one for mother, one for actual Multimedia. Let's see what HP really has for hardware flooring!
I'll try to ask the guy to remove only my warranty, as I'm looking not to have on e on mine only.
