These are the "guts" of my comp. May look all stock, but i just changed the CPU today from intel celeron, i believe, to a core duo.
planning to get a geforce 9800, 1TB HD and a Quad Core soon, not to mention i might have to get a whole new motherboard.
This is my first mod, as i fried two other computers not knowing that messing with the internals on carpet would mess them up (i was 14) XD.
Here are the specs that i know of my current computer:

STOCK
Graphics: Nvidia Geforce 7050 integrated
Hard Drive: 160 GB SATA
Memory: 2GB DDR2 SDRAM
Slots for memory: X2 DIMMS (Both used, bought that way)
CPU: Intel Celeron
CPU Speed: 1.6 GHz
Socket type:LGA775
Model number: ET1810-01

Current
Graphics: Nvidia Geforce 7050 integrated
Hard Drive: 160 GB SATA
Memory: 2GB DDR2 SDRAM
Slots for memory: X2 DIMMS
CPU: Intel Core Duo
Speed: 2.00 GHz

Is the core duo good? I'm unsure about getting it rather than the Pentium.

core duo on a scale from 1-5, easily a 4.5
reason being, it came out in '05, '06, but it still outperforms the celeron that came stock with my pc 2 years ago.
I would personally recommend the intel quad core if you are a hardcore gamer, but i just use my pc's for online games, stuff like that. im not into pc games.
anyway, im selling my celeron if anyones up for it. comes with the case.

I am not a hard core gamer either, and i don't fancy buying a quad core as this is my first computer build and the laptop i am on now also has a Celeron CPU (1.6GHz, 1MB L2 cache) and i think it is a decent CPU for my needs, so a Duel Core would be more than enough for me, it's just deciding which one to get.

BTW the fan is looking very clean now, no doubt you will notice your computer running more smoothly and CPU temperatures down.
 
i have the Intel Pentium Dual E2180 @2.00 ghz and my desktop has 2Gigs ram. Runs pretty well.Best thing about it, i practically got mine for free, i traded.

yeah, id go ahead and get that one, but 60 pounds is like 120 us dollars right?
if so thats a very good price for that particular cpu. i would absolutely get it...

I think it would be less than $120 about $80 or $90. I'm very pleased with it. Just need the money to get it :(
 
i am absolutely interested, but how can i get it shipped? i live in the us
it might take a half a week to get the money ready as well.
