First Build! :D

[luke123]

I've got the Core 2 Quad Q8200, and its pretty quick, however it's only clocked at 2333MHz. Most of my parts were ripped out of a HP P6127UK until I can justify a new board, ram and processor

Very nice

 

[luke123]

I have just binned the other 3 pc's i had, free up some space in the house ;D

 

[luke123]

I have a few old PC's to sort out,Just cant be bothered

lol

Mum and dad kept asking me so i thought i better had, one had a amd athlon chip, one had a intel pentium 4 slxxx malay chip. They are all abit old

 

[luke123]

What amd athlon chip?

Middle chip: From my board just for size comparison

Spec: p4, 3.00ghz sl7pu socket lga775

left side chip spec: from junk pc's
amd athlon, 27493, 1999 amd, axda2500dkv4d, t865947f41847, kgyha 0422epmw, socket 462

Is on the bay the best place for these??

 

[luke123]

Tokin, doing all that over the amd chip i lost out on some ocz cas 5 ram 4gb lol, oh well i have found some xms2 4gb ;D

 

[luke123]

If i told you, you would have to give me your Gpu


Did you see the cpu's posted????, should i stick them on the bay???

 

[luke123]

Just had alook and wouldnt be worth it. on the amd and the p4 not the p4 775 one

Cheers Luke

 

[luke123]

LISTED THEM as one thing all as one as a bundle, put postage as £3.50???

 

[luke123]

Well it would be a tenner closer to your graphics card,Thats the way id think of it.

True and they're listed as all on one listing at £1 and £3 postage

 

[luke123]

Cool,im sure they will sell m8

Yeah hopefully

 

[luke123]

0 Watchers on the cpu's

On the plus side I have won a coolermaster red L.e.D 120mm clear fan £4.91 with P&p

And some games i have won: (Brother was complaining how i never buy any games for the pc or the 360)

Lemonade tycoon, ice cream tycoon for £6.38 with p&p
Assassins creed £5.45 with p&p
The sims 2 open for business £5.20 with p&p

 

[luke123]

It happens in the last 10 seconds

Very true

 

[luke123]

Great how the older ones are still far better than the new ones. They just throw out a load of junk each year now

I don't know i am looking forward to nfs the run

 

[luke123]

Don't forget about download services for games too, they are often cheaper than the stores and sometimes cheaper than used boxed games.

Steam/Green man gaming and the like, always read the PC Games section as people point out deals in there.

Also remember when buying used games that some have copyright protection that only allow them to be installed a certain number of times.

you must have enough fans by now

by the time you finish your build you will have access to the MM lol.

edit. Need for Speed games are on offer on steam until sunday. Some are £3.75 each, the newest ones are £10 to £15ish.

Oh i will have alook ;D

 

[luke123]

I have enough now to fill the case

You can never have to much cooling
