Need some Help with PC shopping
i dont really need a new one but came across this on another board. its definately NEWER than my other pc's but i am not that tech savvy. so my question is this box worth $350.00 with free shipping from TX to east coast.
Here is the specs: Mid Tower – Silver with neon blue lights, 2 on the front of the bezel USB ports. Motherboard- Albratron Kx440 – 8x / FSB-333 Cpu – AMD Athlon XP2200 w/ fan above it Hard Drive – Western Digital 7200 Rpm , 80 gig’s Video Card – Mad Dog , Mx440 8x GeForce 4, 64Mb DDR/ AGP 8x/4x Has VGA, S-Video and Dvi connections. Memory – DDR 256Mb / 36x64 - Pc2100 SDRam / Unbuffered 266 mhz DvD Burner – (Black) TDK IndiDvD +/- R/RW / Cd Burner/ DvD Player Model# 440N Modem – 3Com / 56k / and cable / DSL ready. Additional info: Motherboard has a built in sound card. It is a 6-channel Audio and has 2 usb ports in the rear. I will also include all the boxes, package materials, manuals, software for all the parts and software, so if you are ever to want to do your own tweeking or redo driver installs they will be there for you. I will also throw in a black wireless keyboard and Mouse. |
The weak point here is the power supply which is not specified. We are sticklers on power supplies here at the Cellar. You can bet that the power supply in this system will cause trouble. Otherwise it seems like a half-decent deal if you are happy to do your own support.
It doesn't include any operating system. You would have to run Linux, or pirate or buy a Microsoft OS elsewhere. |
If you are doing your own support and are comfy with that, then if you want to play the latest 3D games you could upgrade the video card, or change out the memory if it seems to be giving you trouble, etc. I didn't realize it was used... that's a point in its favor, I thought it was a builder putting cheap systems together. Maybe this one has had some thought put into it.

Is the video onboard or is there an actual AGP video card?
|
Also the power-supply is a 350 watts
|
You'll want a powersupply that's at least 1.21 gigawatts and a processor that can do 88 MHz.
