In special the PSU, Logysis is (by experience

) one of the worst PSU brands!

$300 max

Off topic:

@ Interested: u still selling your comp? or have you sold it already?

i know the psu isnt great but its works absolutely fine.. and ok lets see the comp cost over 400 to build not including the os.. ill go 300 shipped with no os and without the dvd rom

Ummm.. The OS is the only thing worth anything.

I'll give an example. Yesterday I dropped off a brand new machine to a client with the following specs:

AMD X2 4400+ retail box
Asus M2N-MX SE
Kingston 1GB DDR2 retail box
160GB SATA
LG DVD/RW
In-win SFF desktop case
XP Home with disk/manual/COA

$399 plus tax, brand new, 1 year warranty.

So, you want to strip the OS and the DVD player out of it, and leave whoever with a very crappy mobo and PSU, ugly case and boot up to a prompt. Where's the incentive to that and how is that worth anything without even a warranty (because we all know that if you own an MSI board, chances are REALLY good you're going to need the warranty)? The MSI board is getting slaughtered in reviews.

I dunno. No OS or DVD.. $200 max is fair.

Why'd you go with AMD for that build? You've made some some less than favorable comments regarding their quality.

SirKenin · 05-02-2008, 04:09 PM

Not quality, but speed. The quality is fine, their performance is meh.

However, the client had a price point of $400. To meet it, AMD was the answer. He was thrilled with the end result. This morning he was all excited about how fast it was.. telling the other members about his "lamborghini".

I can't help it. I'm just good at what I do.

I don't think you enforce the above words with this:
ZOMG AMD is crap

Sounds like an oxymoron...

SirKenin · 05-02-2008, 08:54 PM

Yeah...well... They should have had me build their computers. I just build darn good computers. I made that thing dance and he's pickled tink.

ramodkk · 05-02-2008, 09:14 PM

As long as the customer's happy I guess!

JlCollins005 · 05-02-2008, 10:19 PM

see this is one thing i cant figure out about most u people these dont require u to be negative this is for sale if u dont like it u dont need to voice it.. seems alot of u people people like to try to bring down other people especially the 13 year olds which i find funny but if ur not interested in the computer dont post just move on and this thread wasnt started so i could hear how u built some AMD Garbage for a customer.. make ur own thread if u want to do that

SirKenin · 05-02-2008, 10:25 PM

The idea is for you to get a clue what PCs are really worth... and junk isn't worth anything. Once you have a clue, you'll have much better luck selling it
