 HAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHA
I bet you MOFOs thought I was building one for me! hahahhahahahhaha. Nope.
Actually, I have an extra set of nice speakers and a mid-tower here. Soon, I will have an extra VGA card. So, I was thinking about just building a new PC and selling it. Thoughts?
I figure that I'd spend 400,000 building a PC and sell it for 450,000. What can I build with 400,000 these days? I wonder what kind of GPU and CPU I can get for that amount of money  |

After the CPU and GPU, you will need a mainboard, power, RAM...for 400,000, basically an internet/Word machine.
What kind of g.card is it cl?
Not worth it for 50,000. Sell the Graphics card and be done with it.
Even better, bring it when we meet and I will give it to Superhero, if he can't come. I recently gave him my C2D E6550, as he is building a comp for his wife & kids. |

Oh. This card, 6800GT, has to be sent back to BFG. After 5 years, it died, but, I still have the receipt and BFG has a life-time warranty. So, I am going to return it when I get back to the States. It won't be back to me for some time. I would bring it if it were working. |

The cheapest card currently for sale is the Nvidia 7200GS.....25 bucks.
Is a 6800GT even worth building a PC for? |

I can't remember, but, I think the 6800GT out performs the 7200GS. |

Ah yes. You're right. I keep forgetting that Nvidia's numbering system is wacked.
The 6800GT is roughly equivalent to an 8500GT. Maybe even 7600GT.
