[jamjar]

Hi there Listen to this, a friend of mine thought the she would upgrade her P.C so she went out and got a Core 2 Duo E6600 CPU ,as a starter to the upgrade ,she then read up on the net about how to fit this and that ,anyway to cut a long story short she decided it was going to be a lot of work ,as shes not P.C minded ! crazy i know ! so she asked me if i,d want the CPU for £170.00 ummmm not sure if i should ?? good deal or as Noel says Deal or NO Deal ??

Sorry

What have you got at the moment?

How can you be helped if we don't know your motherboard (at the very least).

Sorry i,m looking at ypgrading most of my P.C i have an AMD Athlon xp 2800 at present ,so will be a hell of a jump ! motherboard is an Epox 2 years old i think .

 

[jamjar]

true

why dont you be a friend and build it for her ?

people are too fixed on money over friendships these days

Yeah thats very true ,and i,m going to ask her if she wants me to help her ,but i think that shes more into clothes than P.C'S so needs the ££ for that ! ha !

You'd be getting it for £30 - £40 or so less than it sells for, around £200 is the norm. I suppose she might consider it is worth that to sell it someone who won't be any hassle and to get shot of it.

yeah i,m going to go for it i think ..the CPU that is lol ..

 

[jamjar]

thanks P.C God

Go for it !! Will be a huge leap from your old rig mate

In fact you won't believe the difference

Build her a PC ... get sex

sorted

Proper response edit ... £170 is quite a nice price for that CPU I've seen them for around £200 - £215

Ha! but i,m a P.C gent ! and thats not Political Correct lol and yeah a good price i,d say too..

 

[jamjar]

yeah

would'nt you be better with the EVGA or BFG 680 boards,they both offer better warranty options etc,better off asking in the mobo forum on that one tbh mate

I take it you will be getting the 6600 then

Rob

Yeah going to call her now and say i,ll have the CPU for £170.00 not a bad days work ,top vclass CPU for £40.00 cheaper ..deal !

 

[jamjar]

Ummmm dare i say that she is a woman ha ! and if it an,t got the word Soap in it ,she won,t look at it lol the answer is No ..
