Default What do you think?

What do you think of this computer? It's only $100....and a lot better than my current comp.

I was going to say Neither, but the best one is the with 139.99 because it shows the watt power for power supplies and the other one didn't show or said about watt, but it's up to you. I know price is crazy, but not sure what you are going to do with these computer. Those computer could be for Gamer and enthusiasts. If you not, get the one with $100... If you are the gamer, get the one with $140 then. Take It Easy,

The $100 one has a 425-watt power supply. The computer will mainly be for gaming, yes.

And yes, I know it's barebone- I've got my old HDD's and ram, etc.

Hey, you got good eye... Good Job, I only read the first paragraph and I didn't noticed it. Old Hard Drive and Rams may work... What about Keyboard and Mouse. I think you already go those, haha...

Lol...my eyes aren't so good without my glasses .

The Old HDD's I'm talking about aren't the stock ones....the 40gb below I'd leave in, then I have a 60gb and a 160gb (not listed) that I'd use. I have 1gb of DDR ram, but I may sell that, along with my computer for something better (dual channel, etc). Yes, I do already have a keyboard and mouse...I would have thought it pretty obvious that I have at least a keyboard lol. Besides HDD's, ram, monitor, keyboard, mouse, what else would I need?

And in reponse to the other person: erm, the MSI you rec. is nearing the budget-line...I really wasn't looking for a new computer, but for that price, I'd upgrade. $200 and under I guess is my budget.

EDIT: I just saw that the MSI has a 280watt PSU....I don't think that'll be enough. Also, I'd like a computer that'd be pretty good for OCing.....are most of these good for that? However, gaming is still my first priority.


EDIT EDIT: I just saw this one...it looks great! It even comes with a dual DVD-RW....and less than $100!!!!
