I will come in later on saturday to deliver the parts - have your wallets ready! Dual Layer DVD drive is unavailable im afraid, scan have yet to send me my sata drives. Standard MSI dvd writer will be available though!

Upgrade old parts without changing too much? Are you sure you want to do that? You could get the bare bones of a new system for ?400 or less (cpu, mobo, gfx and ram). Or a complete system for ?600... That way you can stick in the new DX10 stuff when it comes down in price - its what i've just...

I've just realised when I installed the DVD writer in my new PC... that i've got two of them. The MSI is actually just a plain DVD writer, x8 with 3 facias. Still have the box for that too. The other is a NEC Dual layer DVD writer x8/16 which is silver. OEM Sony combo drive is also OEM.

haha you're trying to get your money's worth prism... but not yet, until i see what difference sata drives do. I'm thinking starforce won't effect them since starforce is only coded for IDE (wonder how many other copy protections missed this or if they just won't let anything work with them?)...

i'll buy one - if you've got 1 to spare.

I should also mention the possibility of my IDE drives becoming available, if the sata liteOns come out in time. Sony Combo Drive (beige) ?5 MSI DVD-R/RW +/- x16 Dual layer x8 (swappable facias white/silver/black) ?10 - fairly new, silver facia currently attached.

CPU is Socket 478 - its a Prescott core sadly. Does take alot of abuse though, dunno how long it will last, since it has taken alot of abuse from me not caring about how hot it was (but then again, its free so you can't complain). Yes Prism, thats fine with me - they're not actually in raid...

I don't think so... doesn't have any eSATA connections on it. Its pretty much your standard sata hard disk. Also just noticed I put my GFX card as a PCI express card... its AGP. oops. http://www.komplett.co.uk/k/ki.asp?sku=318040 <-- that one!

Now that I have finally ordered a new PC (mainly cause the old one has well and truly died) the parts that are left are up for grabs. I'm 99.9% certain the motherboard is fried, northbridge wouldn't take the heat. Here's what's going: CPU+Mobo+Case+Floppy - One beaten up case, dead mobo and...

5 - that's right Pseudo, you're mine!

That wasn't me dude, think you should be looking at little one! Or maybe it was dex, he has longer arms...

bah i reckon you just wanted first post pseudo! I think we should also keep the same seating plan - don't you agree? :lol:

I reckon i'd be willing to let the whole thing go for ?275 plus postage or you can collect if you want! (someone else asked how much for the lot - and its easier to sell in one go) Sold individually i'd say: HDDs - ?30 Mobo & Cpu - ?130 Gfx (AGP) - ?80 Raid Controller - ?15 Drives -...

After running memtest and discovering i have ram that is only worth its weight in dog biscuits ive decided to get a new PC... The rest of it however is worthy of sale but useless to me. Case is too beaten up to be of value (one too many lans) and the mobo is quiet old but the cpu is still...

Yeah i had a great time (aside from my pc dying, going to have to sort a new one before the next lan) made all the better by watching Pseudo lose and die in every game he played - he sucked at everything he played. Except Q3 but thats probably because rahr carried him! Lost of random games...
