u couldn't get it cheaper then the current bid, i couln't judge if you could or not until the last 5 minutes of the bidding, biddings change the price crazy at the end...
also, the system on ebay wouldn't hold a thread in gaming to what i configured for u... AMD Athlons kill the pentium 4 series at gaming... i really would recomend AMD for gaming... if you wanted to save a few bucks you could downgrade to this processor. I would not suggest that though because you will only save about $10 and IMO there is more than a $10 difference in performance beetween the 2 processors.... And i don't think you are in the position to overclock.

brand name doesn't matter... as long as the harddrive's interface is Serial ATA150 it will work...

if you want a cheaper harddrive then what i configured, then this will work
