    I gave that computer to my brother a few years ago. Not sure what happened to it...might have pawned it I am sure ;) Just the Corsair LED fans, how many do ya need, I have a few extra I didn't even take out of the box. I won't do anything with them.

    Son's Christmas computer build

    The 990 chipset Gigabyte board was only $15 more so I bumped up :cool: I had no idea AMD made RAM either! I saw it and figured...why not?! :P It was $100, I'll let everybody know how it is ;) It will serve my son well for a few years I am sure. Then we can rebuild when the software demands...

    AMD FX-6300 Vishera 6-Core. I was looking at several different AMD processors and thought about spending a little more. The list price on this one was $100 on Newegg...when I put it in my cart adding everything up the price was $79 so I pulled the trigger! I was reading in several forums about...

    Parts have arrived!

    I will give you a fair assessment on anything...I'll run some tests and see what it can do. I liked the black interior, the window and the look of the outside. I wanted the 120mm and 140mm Corsair all red LED fans with black fan grills. No matter what case I bought I would have put different...

    Where does a person buy a good quality X-Box 360?

    Thanks for the help guys! I think working a deal with Gamestop seems like about the best option...it may be close to his home for the warranty/return policy also. I have been out of the game for a while...kinda lost on where to get anything!

    Where does a person buy a good quality X-Box 360?

    That might be a good option...makes sense to go that route. She is looking at about $150. My son has piles of games for his...I can throw in a stack of games for her. 17 thousand odd posts, global moderator...wow I have been gone a while!:eek:
