The specs:

Intel Core2Duo E8200 @ 2.66GHZ
ZM660-TX PSU
Mainboard: Gigabyte Technology EP35-DS3R
4GB RAM
XFX Nvidia 275 GTX
320GB HDD
A legit copy of Windows 7 Home Edition (x64)
Samsung 22" (1680x1050)

The problem: I think the video card is on the fritz. I can't be bothered/am too busy to sort it out right now. It basically won't start unless you use the reset button and while it does work %100 of the time, graphical applications like games and flash video stutter. It might just need a replacement video card.

Also, the tower is a little worse for ware. It has been shipped and there are a few dents. The monitor is in perfect shape though as it has not been shipped.

I'm just going to buy a whole new system. I'm going to part with this and use the cash to finance a new one.

PM me your offers if you're interested. I'm looking at something in the 4-600,000W range although whatever you think is fair would be alright.

A) It's not broken. It just needs a new video card (I think). I'm using it right now to type this. As it is, it is worth more than I'm selling it for because of the monitor/peripherals and legit copy of Windows 7. I just don't have time these days to fix it myself.
B) Some people buy and sell computers. They might take this one as credit towards something better. That's how I got this one originally.

I should also add that I want to have it repaired before I sell it. I've taken it to three shops already and they won't touch it on account of an English OS so I'm out of ideas.

Since you bring it to the shop already and they won't touch for repair... maybe you should change first the Video Card since thats the problem.

Better yet, you have an idea of the problem, fix it first....you might have a better chance of selling to the price you want. rather than pass it to the buyer, you cannot just say the video card has an error for that price.... its too high


Cheers

You're probably right. I'm going to look into fixing it.
