I agree!! I love my 8600gt!! I have gotten mine up to over 700mhz too!!

Sir Travis D · 04-22-2008, 03:08 AM

I'd say $700-725 with a reserve around $650..

i wish my 8800GT would get to 700mhz

all it can do is 620 safely... lol

/\/\ lol. yea. my 8600 at 1ghz will not touch your 8800GT at 600..haha.

Okay, I don't understand why you made a thread about it. So you're trying to rip people off by lying and exaggerating, fine. But no computer literate person, or even reasonably intelligent person would ever pay you half what you're asking, so why post it in a computer forum?

edit:

In fact, reading your ad makes me sick. "No cheapo parts?" Excuse me? You're using a power supply that came with your piece of crap case. I saw your case at Fry's. It has an 80mm rear fan, that's ridiculous. Not to mention your MSI video card.

You should be deeply ashamed of yourself.

I think its fine what your doing, but that listing is just all wrong in so many ways, its just not going to garner half the attention it could, if you really are serious about trying to get a business going you need to start reading more "how to sell" literature etc.

btw.. the msi card is ok... just saying haha...
i got my 8500gt to 800/1000, and it runs most games decently

Sure, the performance is fine. I've used MSI cards as well.

The point is, it's a budget brand, which doesn't exactly go well with him trying to advertise about how he didn't cut any corners.

However, his case/PSU are by far the most atrocious things he's trying to pass off as "nice."

When I'm going to buy anything off ebay I look for a serious, straight talking seller. As soon as I see exclamation marks I'm gone, especially for something costing serious money like a computer.

Anyone buying stuff like this off ebay is going to know what they're looking for - it's not an 'ultimate gaming computer', it's a good, solid computer with a decent spec.

Advertise honestly, price fairly. And don't bother trying to make money out of this, waste of time.

ok. well i guess you guys are right about me exaggerating about the parts. Look at other listings though, i didn't really say anything that terrible. And the price? i'm barely making a profit if it goes for 800. What, like 20-30 bucks? Really, i'm not ripping anyone off. So, if you want, you can believe what ever you want...but i'm really not ripping anyone off.
