Building computers is a hobby of mine and I am selling this one, which I built not too long ago. Runs every game I've thrown at it thus far (including Crysis, Dishonored, SC2, etc) on highest settings.

Specs:
PSU: Corsair HX 750w (Gold Rated)
MOBO: Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD3R B3
CPU: Intel i5 2500k
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws 4GBx2 (8gb)
Video: MSi Geforce GTX 560 Ti Twinfrozr II Factory Overclocked (2 GB)
HDD: 1 TB Samsung
CD: Samsung DVDRW
Case: BLack Antex Mid-tower.

I paid a little over 1.5 to make it. Asking 1.4 mil OBO

Pics will be incoming today. If interested PM me or email to [email protected]

No offense, but you can get a much better system than that for cheaper from a korean online builder...

Just configured an i7-3770k, 16gb ram, 1tb hd, 120gb ssd, gti 660 2gb for less than 1.4 million tested and shipped to my house with 2 year warranty on all parts...

What's your MOBO and PSU? I just priced all components and it comes to a little over 1.4 mil. If you got that done more power to you, but I don't see how it is possible.

The lowest priced i7 online is 370,000

The lowest priced 660 ti is 355,000.

A decent MOBO will cost at least 250,000

A proper PSU will cost at least 250,000

Then you are going to have the case, GOOD RAM, HDD, and ODD to factor in.

If you are getting a deal like that, more power to you. However, that is not very normal in my experience.

You probably know more about building PCs than I do...

The mobo I got is not spectacular it's an Asrock z77 extreme 4 and the PSU is a 700w sky digital 86 pct.. not spectacular either.

RAM is slower samsung but configured at 16gb. I think I can justify getting 16gb of slower ram vs. 8gb of faster ram. In any case, RAM prices always drop fast and it's a simple and cheap upgrade later on down the line.

But my GPU is and CPU are quite nice and the added SSD as a boot drive makes real world stuff super fast compared to 7.2k rpm drive.

Actually the 16gb is useless unless you have the 64-bit version of Windows, as the 32-bit only recognizes/utilizes up to 8 gb.

8 gb of good ram is always better/faster than a larger quantity of generic.

I agree with the SSD, but you should also check what type of 660 ti you have. I have a MSi GTX 560 Ti Twinfrozr II Factory OC'ed to great levels, which is why it was more expensive.

The SSD is nice which is one reason I say you got a good deal, solid state drives alone cost a fair amount.

I would be careful with the PSU you have. 700w is pushing the limit for your type of rig so you won't be able to do any overclocking whatsoever. PSU is just as important as processors and vid cards, if not more so!

Anyway, you got a good deal. Have fun.

I already have a gaming rig, but two things you might want to look into for a great rig are 16Gb of fast ram and an SSD drive. If you think SSD don't give enough storage, check out WD's 10k RPM drives. A TB is about 340k here in Korea, about 225 bux off newegg.com.

The PSU is good quality and unfortunately overpriced outside the US. Rest of your specs look good.

I dont think you trying to rip any one off, but im guessing you must have paid W1,500,000 a while ago or didn't really get the best prices when you sourced the parts. Maybe I'm missing something? I do know Korea does tend to have older parts at higher prices though. like just the other day I was at techno mart looking for a new hdd and they wanted W125,000 for a 2tb drive... not a total rip off, but more in line with what a 3tb drive should cost...
