Well, it was high-end when I bought it a year and a half ago. Smile It's still great though, and everything you'll ever need for gaming etc.

Specs:

AMD Athlon 64 3000+ (equivalent to a Pentium 4 of the same speed, better for gaming)

ATI 9600XT 256 MB Video Card (outstanding video card for games)

MSI Motherboard

160 GB SATA Western Digital Hard Drive 7200 rpm

Sony DVD/CD burner 8x speed

GeIL 512 MB RAM 3200 speed

Samsung Samtron 19 inch monitor

Antec Sonata Piano Black case w/ power supply (picture link below)

Keyboard, mouse


I purchased all of this for 2,400,000 won and I will now sell it for 1.4 million won.

email me at [email protected] if you are interested. Thanks!

In other news, I have a desktop that I paid 4,300,000 won for last week, but I'd be happy to sell it to you for 2 million.

Dude, you have some nice components and a nice case, but no English teacher is going to touch a used computer like that for under 900,000.

Last time I checked this was a buy/sell forum, where things are bought and sold. If you are not interested in it, why is it necessary to post here?

I think you CRT, CRT is the old tube type monitor. LCD, TFT means flast screen.

Anyway... its a nice system. But I do think the price is a bit high since you can buy all that NEW (and better) for the same price. Sorry to rain on your parade but you need to be realistic when selling used computer parts.

And if you did indeed pay W4,300,000 (last week) you were sadly ripped off big time.


#1, like I said before, is it really necessary to post opinions of what is and isn't expensive in this thread? If you want to build the computer yourself, then maybe you can make it cheaper. But pre-made you will be hard pressed to find a brand new computer with those specs for that price.

#2, look above, it wasn't me who paid 4 million won for a computer.

Sorry, my bad. I was not paying attention! But your price is still high, even for a pre-built system.

the cheapest I will go is 1.2 million. If anyone is interested, my email is in the original thread. Otherwise, I guess it stays with me. Smile

Wow you really over paid for your system

I made my system couple months ago and I used about 1.2 mill for the following

AMD 64 3200+
Asrock mobo
1 gig ram
6800 GT
160 gig HD
450 PSU
19inch monitor
DVD RW
wireless mouse
LG keyboard
Webcam

it's not an overpayment because:

#1 - it was a year and a half ago

#2 - our specs are roughly the same

#3 - you built it yourself

anyways, no point debating this anymore. I've decided I'm going to run this baby into the ground rather than sell.
