That is a nice system. Would love to get my hands on that if I didn't already have a desktop.

Listen, man, no offense, but there was a guy trying to sell a pretty good rig just a few weeks ago for about 1/2 this price and he couldn't get any takers. I'm just saying you might want to sit on this for a bit.

Would you part with the monitor separately?

Please link me. And maybe the op would be curious too if you're making him lose money... and of course at the same time helping out the buyer...

Yeah, that was me. So that people don't have to find my post I just thought I'd put in my two cents in here.

A few things are different from this one and mine...

First, it is an Intel platform which is considerably more expensive than AMD, second it is a Radeon 4850, and mine was 4670. This one can definitely game at 1900x1200 whereas mine could do so at 1680x1050. Finally the monitor is 26in and mine was 20.

The price seems to be a reasonable asking price, only thing is I'm not sure that people on this board are ready to part with that much money.

Quick question does your monitor have any component inputs?

Good luck with the sale.

Righty oh you are Mario! Crap that rhymed; Shocked, didn't mean too.
But yes, this system is faster and more costly. I was thinking about replying to that other guys post and then I thought what the heck people that are in the know, know about these things and no need really.

As to your question, yes it has VGA, DVI and HDMI. And it tilts sideways for those inclined.

Have a good day and let's all enjoy the sunshine before the rain arrives.

Yeah, I wasn't saying it wasn't worth the cash, I was just saying that now may not be the right time to sell. Again, no offense or trolling intended.

The CPU can be had for 230,000, HDD for 130,000, the older P5K isn't listed anymore, but I guess around 150,000 (highball), HD4850 around 160,000, 650w. maybe 60,000, case 50,000 (highball again) and the RAM is maybe 20,000 per GB, so 80,000. DVD drives are almost free these days.

What make is the HDD? The PSU? The RAM? The 4850? These may make a difference, as not all products are created equal.

So, hardware is around 800,000 and a Zeus-like generic 26" monitor can certainly be had for around the remaining 500,000.

A better price would be a million.

1.3 is a good price for this rig. If you're not in a rush to sell, I'd wait on it for a while, you'll find a buyer.

It would be a good price if it were new. I could link you to the prices I stated above; they are from danawa.com.

craigslist is better for selling this kind of stuff anyways... from the seller's point of view.
